A STUDY OF PSYCHO-EDUCATIONAL APPRAISAL BY DIGITAL COMPUTER

Abstract

Proposes to develop a demonstrable and widely applicable means of improving the guidance process by: (1) developing a computer program to perform the task of psycho-educational appraisal; (2) explicating and studying the decision-making behavior of counselors in psycho-educational appraisal; (3) improving the validity of psycho educational appraisal in counseling. Reports that a new methodology for automating, studying, and improving the appraisal process has recently been demonstrated (Kleinmuntz 1963). Concludes that the Kleinmuntz study demonstrates the value of his method for studying the decision-making behavior of diagnosticians and improving the validity of the diagnostic task.
