Psychological Assessment Report

A psychological assessment report is created by psychology professionals to inform groups or individuals of
the assessments appropriate for their current needs. This type of report also includes a summary of the
services provided to these groups or individuals. This evaluation is used by the various entities to assess
basic needs, competencies, preferences, skills, traits, dispositions, and abilities for different individuals in a
variety of settings.
Psychological reports vary widely depending on the psychology professional creating it and the needs being
assessed. Some of the psychology professionals who create this type of report include counselors, school
psychologists, consultants, psychometricians, or psychological examiners. This type of report may be as
short as three pages or as long as 20 or more pages depending on the needs of the stakeholders. Many
reports include tables of scores that are attached either in an appendix or integrated into the report. Despite
the many variations in assessment reports, most include the same essential information and headings.
