Video tape recording: A provocative tool for the school psychologist

The video-tape recorder (VTR) is one of the newest and most versatile instruments available for collection of assessment and research data. It has been used by a psychological consultant to the schools (a) to collect observational data in order to complete referral information and formal test data, (b) to facilitate multiple consultation, and (c) to provide models for test administration for teachers or paraprofessionals. Innovative and imaginative use of the VTR is encouraged.
