Psychological Evaluation
Westchester Arc’s psychological assessment service helps verify the presence and/or extent of a developmental disability to determine an individual’s need for services and to aid in the determination of service eligibility.
All evaluation reports are prepared by a licensed clinical psychologist trained in cognitive-intellectual assessment.
Who should get tested?
Anyone exhibiting signs of developmental delay or current clients in need of updated evaluations to determine treatment needs and continued service eligibility.
How long does the process take? What does it entail?
Testing takes approximately two hours and involves a review of the respondent’s medical, developmental, academic, occupational and treatment history, as well as a clinical interview and observation and administration of normatively-based, cognitive-intellectual and adaptive-behavioral tests.
How does psychological testing help?
Psychological testing is critical in confirming or ruling out the presence of developmental disability in persons being evaluated for the first time. It is also useful in assessing the current functioning level and related needs of an individual already identified as having developmental disabilities.
