Psychological Assessment Australia (PAA) are proud suppliers of the PAI in Australia. They have teamed up with Dr Phil Watts run a two-hour webinar on new and exciting PAI-Plus extensions.
​
For the last 30 years the PAI has been establishing itself as a psychological instrument of practical utility in assessing clinical pathology. This workshop is designed to help psychologists get up to speed with the new scales which are designed to make this great test even greater! This workshop is based on the understanding that participant is familiar with the PAI (if not, see the one-day introductory workshop)

The PAI Plus takes the existing PAI items and gives users an updated way to interpret the data. Using the PAI, an objective inventory of adult personality, the new report offers:
  • DSM-5® update: Updated diagnostic possibilities align with the criteria.• Alternative Model Profile: An optional new profile scores in accordance with the Alternative Model for Personality Disorders.
  • Additional supplemental indices: Based on years of academic research, 15 new supplemental indices provide additional profile information related to negative and positive distortion and random responding. Supplemental clinical indicators provide profile information related to suicidality, aggression, level of care, presence of ADHD, and more.
  • Context-specific norm groups: Including profile overlays for bariatric surgery candidates, child custody evaluations, chronic pain patients, college students, deployed military, egg donors/gestational carriers, motor vehicle accident claimants, police applicants, and potential kidney donors. This profile is overlayed onto the examinee’s profile to allow for comparison.
  • Updated report: An updated look and feel create a streamlined and modern-looking report.
The workshop is a practical introduction and includes time for questions.

Webinar - Personality Assessment Inventory (PAI): Introductory and Advanced Interpretations and PAI -Plus
Register for Webinar - Tuesday 10 November 2020 from 6:00am to 1:00pm (AWST)
Psychological Assessment Australia (PAA) are proud suppliers of the PAI in Australia. They have teamed up with Dr Phil Watts run a full-day workshop on the PAI including the recent PAI-Plus extensions.

For the last 25 years the PAI has been establishing itself as a psychological instrument of practical utility in assessing clinical pathology. This workshop is designed to help psychologists get the most from an assessment which involves the PAI.

The focus of the workshop is on practical skills training. The format of the day involves an initial review of the nature and structure of the PAI clinical scales in the morning. The practical skills training involves analysing a real protocol to establish confidence in using this tool both in formal assessments and clinical cases. The afternoon section focuses on response style indicators and detecting positive and negative (malingering) response patterns.

This workshop uses group discussion throughout the day. A range of cases are considered including family court, workers compensation, criminal related matters, and clinical assessment. The cases are real clients. If you have a scored but unusual PAI bring it along to for discussion. Application in personnel selection is touched on.
  • The morning introductory component assumes no pre-existing knowledge about the PAI.
  • The advance part of the workshop runs in the afternoon. This includes the new PAI-plus
  • This covers advance aspects of the PAI, response style indicators, effortful and non-effortful distortions, and other advanced tools
  • Includes discussion on Corrective Services Norms and Selection Applications.
