Základním cílem projektu bylo zmapovat rejstřík psychodiagnostických metod používaných českými psychology a prozkoumat, zda jsou psychodiagnostické metody používány adekvátně, v jakém psychodiagnostickém kontextu jsou používány, jaká je jejich psychometrická úroveň, v jakých formách jsou užívány a jaké typy metod a které konkrétní metody jsou respondenty postrádány či naopak odmítány. Bylo provedeno dotazníkové šetření na vzorku 316 psychologů. Psychologové působící v klinické psychologii, poradenské psychologii, manažerské psychologii a v ozbrojených složkách byli zastoupeni v poměru 4:3:2:1. Prezentujeme zde přehled nejpoužívanějších metod v oblasti diagnostiky inteligence, kognitivních funkcí, osobnosti a jejích patických rysů, vývoje, neuropsychologických jevů a interpersonálních vztahů; kromě pořadí metod je uvedeno vždy také stručné shrnutí hodnocení jednotlivých nástrojů pro danou oblast.
