When assessment isn't possible

In which situations assessment is impossible or unethical, and how to handle resistance to assessment.

The tools

WAIS/WISC, Rorschach, TAT, HTP and the Bender test — how each works, what it reveals, and its validity.

What current research says about the quality of the tools, and the academic debates still open.
