St Petersburg College Medical and Health Discussion Question
For this assignment, search the Internet for a free screening practice test related to mental health and complete the instrument. For example, you might choose a screening practice test for depression like the one found
at http://www.mentalhealthamerica.net/llw/depression_… or see the document titled Assignment 1 Additional Resources.
After you have completed the practice test write a brief reaction paper (200 -250 words – less than a page!) about your experience. You DO NOT have to share the results of your test/screening. Rather, I want you to focus on your thoughts, feelings and reactions related to the process and the activity. For example, how did you feel about taking the test – were you anxious about it before you started, curious about what it would show; did you think about how honest you intended to be when answering the questions; were any of the questions uncomfortable, did you agree with the results, etc. Do you think that such screening tools are helpful; are they accurate?
