NM Psych Juris case studies

The New Mexico State Board of Psychologist Examiners regulates the practice of psychology in New Mexico with a public-safety mandate. Its published function includes ensuring appropriate licensure requirements for psychologists, psychologist associates, and prescribing psychologists, and providing for the administration of a national and a state jurisprudence examination. Candidates for New Mexico psychology licensure should therefore expect two examination components: a national examination and a New Mexico jurisprudence examination. The jurisprudence component tests New Mexico-specific law, board rules, and the code of professional conduct that governs psychological practice, together with the licensure structure and scope of practice for the three credential types the Board names. Topics on this exam: New Mexico statutes, rules, and code of professional conduct governing the practice of psychology and Licensure requirements and scope of practice for psychologists, psychologist associates, and prescribing psychologists. The NM Psych Juris case studies are 5 cases and about 2,486 words.
