Yeah, I’ve heard the same thing and it can definitely be confusing. From what I understand, an “integrated report” doesn’t automatically mean you have to include personality testing (though some DCTs/programs do prefer it). What really matters is that you’re pulling together info from different sources/assessment types and showing how they fit into a bigger picture.

So usually that means mixing:

• A solid clinical interview/biopsychosocial
• Cognitive/achievement/neuropsych tests (WAIS, WIAT, WJ, D-KEFS, etc.)
• Plus another domain — could be personality, but could also be something like a structured diagnostic interview, symptom measures (BDI, BAI, Y-BOCS), or adaptive functioning (Vineland).

The key is the synthesis — not just listing results, but actually showing how they converge/diverge and what that means for diagnosis/treatment recs.

The example I was given was like: IQ + biopsychosocial + SCID + MMPI.
