- Abstract
The field of Psychological Assessment (PA) in Brazil faced changes in the last two decades. Since the development of Psychology has been historically uneven between the regions of the country, this study aimed to assess the practices, academic training, and knowledge of psychologists from the state of Maranhão on psychological assessment. 124 psychologists with active registration in the Regional Council of Psychology of Maranhão participated responding to a structured interview script prepared for this study. The results show that most claim to perform PA in their professional practice; that interview is the most used technique and it is considered the most important for the process; that there are indications of progress in PA training in the state of Maranhão, but some difficulties remain regarding the comprehension of psychometric concepts and the insertion of PA practices in the daily work of psychologists.
