Psychological testing can assist in understanding concerns, exploring possible underlying issues, and informing diagnosis and treatment planning. Psychologists gather information from tests, interviews, and background history to develop an overall understanding of the person being assessed. Tests are one part of a broader psychological assessment.
All tests are administered, scored, and interpreted by registered psychologists. They may be conducted face-to-face or online, depending on the type of assessment.
How do they work?
Our assessments typically include:
- Three or more 50-minute clinical consultations (depending on complexity)
- Administration of specific psychological tests
- Scoring of measures and a written interpretative report
During the consultations, you may be asked about relevant personal, family, and educational history. At the end of the process, you will receive a written report outlining your test results and general recommendations. For some assessments, your psychologist may recommend further medical or specialist assessments. Medicare does not provide rebates for psychological testing and assessments.

What do psychological tests tell you?
Some people feel nervous about taking psychological tests, while others are curious about the process. These assessments can provide structured information about areas such as cognitive abilities, personality traits, learning differences, and possible indicators of conditions such as autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, or memory impairment.
For individuals, testing may help identify strengths and areas for development, and suggest strategies for learning, working, or interacting more effectively with others.
For psychologists, test results are one source of information — used alongside interviews, history, and other assessment methods — to help identify areas that may benefit from further attention and to inform treatment planning.
Psychological tests are developed through research and standardisation to provide reliable and valid information about aspects of cognitive and emotional functioning. They form part of a broader assessment and are not, on their own, diagnostic.
