If you haven’t heard of Q-interactive by now, you’re missing out on a true game changer for psychological testing. I feel really lucky to have two of the main guys from Q-interactive on the show with me today. We talk through a lot of information that will help you figure out if it could be helpful to use Q-interactive in your practice. Here are a few points we touch on:

  • Initial development and standardization

  • Cost
  • Two things that might keep you from using Q-interactive
  • Future directions for the platform
