What assessments are used in court ordered psychologicals?
I’m sure different measures are used for different reasons for referral, but is there a basic battery of tests parents with kids in foster care receive when the court requests it? For example, Stanford-Binet, Vineland, MMPI-II, MCMI? Or, is it just an interview/clinical assessment?

When I was a case manager In Illinois, there was a list of psychologists approved by DCFS to do the court ordered psychological assessments. In my experience each psychologist used the tools they wanted - IQ and an axis diagnosis was always given.
