We surveyed the use of tests among 42 clinical psychologists in Hong Kong. Results showed that intelligence tests, objective and projective personality tests, and some neuropsychological tests were used frequently. Patterns of test use across settings revealed some homogeneity in that a few tests were frequently used in all the settings, and at the same time heterogeneity with some tests were preferred in particular settings. We identify the need for the development of culturally relevant tests in Hong Kong. The results are compared with survey results obtained in the United States, and recommendations are made with regard to the future of testing in Hong Kong.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
