The 16pf Psychological Evaluation Questionnaire (16pf PEPQ) is a personality measure that includes a pathology element. Part I of the 16pf PEPQ uses the 185 items from the 16pf Career Development Report (CDR) which you completed in COUN 540 Career Development. Part II, however, focuses on pathology.

You should have completed this assessment through the lens of a client with a particular mood disorder - still being yourself, but with a particular mood disorder. Taking the assessment through this lens is meant to help you better understand the relationship between how a client might think, feel, and behave and what that looks like on a psychological measure. Once you completed the assessment, you should then have compared the normal personality scales from the 16PF Career Development Report you took in COUN 540 Career Development to see what, if any, actually changed when completing the assessment through the lens of a client with a mood disorder. Make sure you included this information in the overview of the results write-up.

You should have received an email to your DMU email account that provided all the information needed for you to take this assessment.

Once you completed the assessment and reviewed the results, you will develop a paper that includes an overview of your results and a brief interpretation of your results relative to each reported area of the instrument: Normal Personality, Pathology-Oriented Personality, Occupational Interests, Supplemental Counseling Scores, and Response Style Indices.
