Empirically Based Assessment

Empirically Based Assessment is a process that uses scientific research and objective data to evaluate a person's mental health, abilities, or behaviors. Instead of relying solely on subjective opinions or guesswork, it involves using standardized tools, tests, and evidence from previous studies to make informed, accurate decisions. This approach ensures that assessments are based on proven methods, increasing their reliability and validity in understanding an individual's needs and guiding effective treatment or interventions.
