In the category of Assessment and Testing on the National Counselor Examination (NCE), the Counselor Preparation Comprehensive Examination (CPCE), or another counseling exam, you’ll want to have an idea of the various testing formats that exist.

This video is jam-packed with topics. You’ll find information on subjective and objective tests, free choice and forced choice assessments, and normative and ipsative tests to name a few. We’ll also discuss the differences between speed and power tests. Other terms such as spiral and cyclical assessments will be covered, and we’ll be introduced to horizontal and vertical tests.
