Course: Psychological Assessment - theory to practice

Psychological Assessment (PA) is a set of procedures that aim to collect data to test clinical hypotheses, produce diagnoses, describe the functioning of individuals or groups and make predictions about behavior or performance in specific situations. It is, therefore, a complex area with interfaces and applications in all fields of Psychology.

To provide students with the opportunity to obtain the theoretical and technical knowledge necessary for competent and ethical performance, the Bahiana will offer, in the months of April and May, a complete extension course, divided into eight modules that make up a workload of 54 hours.
