Testing Accommodations

Standardized examinations and other high-stakes tests are gateways to educational and employment opportunities. Whether seeking admission to a high school, college, or graduate program, or attempting to obtain a professional license or certification for a trade, it is difficult to achieve such goals without sitting for some kind of standardized exam or high-stakes test. While many testing entities have made efforts to ensure equal opportunity for individuals with disabilities, the Department continues to receive questions and complaints relating to excessive and burdensome documentation demands, failures to provide needed testing accommodations, and failures to respond to requests for testing accommodations in a timely manner.

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) ensures that individuals with disabilities have the opportunity to fairly compete for and pursue such opportunities by requiring testing entities to offer exams in a manner accessible to persons with disabilities. When needed testing accommodations are provided, test-takers can demonstrate their true aptitude.

The Department of Justice (Department) published revised final regulations implementing the ADA for title II (State and local government services) and title III (public accommodations and commercial facilities) on September 15, 2010. These rules clarify and refine issues that have arisen over the past 20 years and contain new and updated requirements.

Overview

This publication provides technical assistance on testing accommodations for individuals with disabilities who take standardized exams and other high-stakes tests. It addresses the obligations of testing entities, which include private, state, or local government entities that offer exams related to applications, licensing, certification, or credentialing for secondary (high school), postsecondary (college and graduate school), professional (law, medicine, etc.), or trade (cosmetology, electrician, etc.) purposes. Who is entitled to testing accommodations, what types of testing accommodations must be provided, and what documentation may be required of the person requesting testing accommodations are also discussed.

Learning disorders are categorized as mild, moderate and severe. Accommodation and support services align with the severity to facilitate a person’s most effective functioning.

Learning disorders, if not recognized and managed, can cause problems throughout a person’s life beyond having lower academic achievement. These problems include increased risk of greater psychological distress, poorer overall mental health, unemployment, underemployment and dropping out of school.

*Testing for Children and Adults*

Diagnosing autism spectrum disorder (ASD) can be difficult because there is no medical test, like a blood test, to diagnose the disorder. Doctors look at the child’s developmental history and behavior to make a diagnosis.

ASD can sometimes be detected at 18 months of age or younger. By age 2, a diagnosis by an experienced professional can be considered reliable. However, many children do not receive a final diagnosis until much older. Some people are not diagnosed until they are adolescents or adults. This delay means that people with ASD might not get the early help they need.

Diagnosing children with ASD as early as possible is important to make sure children receive the services and supports they need to reach their full potential. There are several steps in this process. We will walk you through each step to ensure the best testing experience for you.

Fitness for Duty Evaluation

Psychological testing measures an individual's performance at a specific point in time. Psychological tests can't predict future or innate potential. Psychological testing is not a single test or even a single type of test. It encompasses a whole body of dozens of research-backed tests and procedures of assessing specific aspects of a person's psychological makeup.

Cognitive functions can be defined as cerebral activities that lead to knowledge, including all means and mechanisms of acquiring information. Cognitive functions encompass reasoning, memory, attention, and language and lead directly to the attainment of information and, thus, knowledge.

The clinical interview is a core component of any psychological testing. All assessments begin with a clinical interview, a review of medical records, as well as any other pertinent data. This interview provides an opportunity to gather important background and family data. Clinical interviews typically last from 1 to 2 hours in length.

Cognitive assessments may include assessment of IQ or level of intelligence, perceptual abilities, verbal and non-verbal skills, attention and processing or memory abilities. Typically, cognitive ability tests cover some or all of the following categories: numerical, verbal, abstract, spatial, and mechanical reasoning. Questions can take many different forms and cover varying degrees of difficulty, depending on the type of ability being assessed.

The most commonly administered IQ test is called the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale IV (WAIS-IV) and is appropriate for any individual aged 16 or older. Depending on age, a child can be administered the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children IV (WISC-IV), or the Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence IV (WPPSI-IV).

Many kinds of psychological tests are available for specific areas, such as aptitude or achievement in school, career or work counseling, management skills, and career planning.

Testing for competency as well as neuropsychological testing is available.

Neuropsychological Testing

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) can impact focus, organization, impulse control, and daily functioning. Our Comprehensive ADHD Testing provides an in-depth evaluation to assess attention-related challenges in children, adolescents, and adults.

We utilize a combination of clinical interviews, standardized behavioral assessments, cognitive testing, and objective measures to ensure an accurate diagnosis. Our approach differentiates ADHD from other conditions that may present with similar symptoms, such as anxiety, learning disabilities, or executive functioning difficulties.

A clear and precise diagnosis allows us to create individualized treatment recommendations, including behavioral strategies, therapy options, academic or workplace accommodations, and, if appropriate, medical interventions.
