چکیده (انگلیسی):

Computer applications in the field of psychological test administration have significant ethical implications for clinicians, client/responders, and computerized test construction and administration. Lack of awareness of computer-related issues may undermine clinicians' ability to ethically perform computerized psychological assessments. Graduate training in computerized testing is limited, and clinicians should be exposed to ethical concerns, potential judgment errors, and possible pitfalls in evaluating computer-generated reports. Recommendations for clinical research and practice are offered. Computerization clearly presents a series of dilemmas for psychologists conducting clinical assessments that will continue well into the future. Increased awareness of relevant issues will enhance the chances that ethical dilemmas will be successfully navigated.
