In this episode of The Testing Psychologist, I had the pleasure of hosting a powerhouse group from PAR: Jenny Greene, Nikel Rogers-Wood, Cecil Randy Reynolds, and Randy Kamphaus. We dove deep into the development and features of PAR’s new Digital Record Form—a tool designed to streamline performance-based assessment administration, starting with the RIAS-2. We discussed how this innovation differs from previous digital options like Q-interactive, the team’s intentional focus on flexibility and simplicity, and how the digital record form reduces cognitive load while preserving the clinician-client relationship. We also explored the future of digital assessment, the potential role of AI, and how these tools can make our work more efficient without compromising clinical integrity. I’m really excited about this advancement and can’t wait to implement it in my own practice!
