How well do you have the DSM understood? How about the NASW Code of Ethics? The Pass the ASWB Exam blog is standing by to put your knowledge to the test. Or, should we say, the quiz.
On the blog, find a series of quick quizzes designed to help you strengthen and identify weak spots in your knowledge. Take, for example, these three diagnoses. Do you know them right away just from a clipped definition? (A clipped definition, or less, is all you're likely to find on the ASWB Exam.)
1. Intrusion symptoms, avoidance, and cognitive alterations following exposure to actual or threatened death, serious injury, or sexual violence.
2. In children, a consistent pattern of inhibited, emotionally withdrawn behavior, emotional and social disturbance following extremes of insufficient care.
3. Disruption of identity characterized by two or more distinct personality states with recurrent gaps in the recall of everyday events.
That's from Name That Diagnosis IV (answers there).
As the blog repeatedly states, the quick quizzes are not what you'll find on the real social work exam. (For questions in the style of the actual exam, check out SWTP.) But these helpful nonetheless. Enjoy them. And enjoy your ever-growing social work knowledge and wisdom.
