Qualitative Assessment

Abstract

Qualitative assessment methods typically are holistic and integrated. In the realm of abilities they usually present complex tasks in miniature form. In the realm of interests, values, and personality they present situations that call for divergent production by the client, often as a projection or abstraction. Compared with standardized tests, they offer a more active role for clients, a more intimate connection between assessment and the counseling process, and greater adaptability to ethnic, cultural, age, gender, and other individual differences. The qualitative methods, as a rule, also lend themselves well to use in groups for administration, interpretation, and discussion.
