The Shedler-Westen Assessment Procedure or SWAP is a unique psychological test for personality assessment and clinical case formulation. It is completed by clinicians, not patients. SWAP is based on over 20 years of scientific research. Its validity is documented in more than 100 articles in premier scientific journals like American Psychologist and The American Journal of Psychiatry. SWAP has been translated into fourteen languages.
SWAP combines your clinical insight with our cutting-edge science. It relies on clinicians to do what clinicians do best: describe patients they know. It relies on psychometric and statistical methods to do what they do best: combine information optimally for maximum reliability, validity, and predictive accuracy. The result is an assessment tool that illuminates both the surface and depth of personality.
