Other interventions from the 1900’s
• Psychosurgery 1930s to 1950s: Prefrontal lobotomy – left patients vegetative, replaced by very
specific microsurgery for lesions

Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) in 1940s:
• 150 volts run through the head for 1-2 seconds– leads to memory loss, broken bones, still used
as “last resort” for depression– Today the patient is usually placed under
general anesthesia, paralysed with drugs, monitored and assisted with breathing.
• Antipsychotic medications in the 1950s

Interviewing in an assessment
• Focus depends on what you are assessing, diagnosis
• Background includes medical, school/work, family, hobbies, description of symptoms, and “other sources of information”
• Tests then augment interview– Intelligence, neuropsychological, memory tests
– Personality and behavioral measures
– Psychophysiological and computer tasks

Who can conduct “therapy”
• Anyone can offer themselves to the public as a “therapist” or “counsellor”
• These are not protected titles or services: watch out!
• Only a psychologist can say they offer “Psychological intervention” or “Psychological assessment”
• Title and services of a “psychologist” governed by provincial statute
