    Psychological testing and assessment involve measuring psychology-related variables through standardized tests and other procedures. The goal is to gather data about behaviors, personality, intelligence, emotions, or attitudes in order to make psychological evaluations and recommendations. Tests are used to directly measure variables, while assessment is a broader process that uses test scores and other tools to answer referral questions. Only licensed psychologists can independently perform testing and assessment, while psychometricians can administer tests under supervision.
