First assignment
Below are the instruction for my first assignment. Keep in mind my state is Texas and seeking to be a mental health counselor. This is a discussion so it doesnt have to be long just explain.
Research your state regulations(TEXAS) for the license you are seeking and list what(MENTAL HEALTH), if any, instruments you would be allowed to administer & interpret in your state. BE SPECIFIC about what your specific role can be with assessments in your intended setting. Some you might administer but not interpret, for example. Include your expected license and state in your response. You may need to contact your state licensing board to find where this information is listed or have personal communication with a board representative. Be sure to properly credit all sources of information in your post. Remember other requirements for discussions as stated previously.
Second assignment
Please follow the instructions
Distinguish between the three (3) following kinds of derived scores: (a) percentiles; (b) standard scores; (c) developmental scores. In your answer, be sure to explain what each score tells you and how it is different from the other 2 types of scores. Be specific in your response. Your response should be in formal English writing, in APA format (i.e., title page, double spaced, running head, page #, crediting source of information, reference page, etc), and be no longer than 2 pages of writing, not counting title page and reference page. Be sure to use spell-check and other helps provided to you in Word.
