Dr. Rogers is a psychologist specializing in personality testing. After completing a test battery on his patient, Mrs. Brown, he must write a report explaining the results and diagnosis. Dr. Rogers uses professional language and clinical terms when describing Mrs. Brown’s diagnosis. Which test taker right does this describe?
  1. The right of informed consent
  2. The right be informed of test findings
  3. The right to privacy and confidentiality
  4. The right to the least stigmatizing label
Explanation
Answer: D - Test takers have the right to the least stigmatizing label. In generations past, clinicians were permitted to use terms such as “moron” and “feeble-minded” when describing patients. Today, the dignity of patients is preserved in part by ensuring that clinicians use the least stigmatizing labels for all conditions and individuals.
