These are resources designed to simulate the format and content of the Examination for Professional Practice in Psychology (EPPP). They are intended to help candidates prepare for the licensing exam by providing practice opportunities and familiarity with question types. These materials typically cover the core domains assessed by the EPPP, such as biological bases of behavior, cognitive-affective bases of behavior, social and multicultural bases of behavior, and lifespan development.
The value of these preparatory materials lies in their ability to reduce test anxiety and improve performance on the actual exam. By engaging with these examples, candidates can identify areas of strength and weakness in their knowledge base, allowing them to focus their study efforts more effectively. Historically, the availability of such practice resources has been linked to improved pass rates on professional licensing examinations.
