What are Cultural Neutral Assessments Used for?
Medical Needs
Employment
Personality
Intelligence & Skills
Education
Cultural neutral assessments can be used to determine medical needs, employment screening, personality type/traits, intelligence and skills, and education. An assessment can be used for employers to determine whether or not a candidate is a good fit for their company, and match their hiring criteria (Doyle, 2019). An educational assessment can be included with the intelligence and skills because an educational assessment helps determine where a child is in regard to their knowledge level and skills. It also helps determine whether or not the child is on track in their development, and if they are in the appropriate grade level. The use of personality assessments helps to determine aspects of a person’s personality; as well as their behavioral style. They are also a measurement of personality characteristics; such as whether a person is more introverted or extroverted. Culture Neutral Assessment Presentation

Cultural Neutral Assessments Ethical?
The Guidelines need to be the same to be considered ethical:
All participants have agreed to partake in the assessment.
It is used for specific aspects.
In order to be ethical the assessments must correspond with these aspects:
Item Response Theory
Relate to a Person’s Parameters
Itemize Parameters
Differential Item Functioning
They must go beyond factors that only focus on culture.
The use of multiple variable matching methods.
The assessments that are utilized, Item Response and Differential Item Functioning, need to follow certain aspects. For item response, the assessments need to relate to person parameters and item parameters (Bushnell, 2000)Culture Neutral Assessment Presentation. This will ensure that the cultural aspects remain neutral. In addition, the differential item functioning needs to make sure that during assessments to go beyond and remove culture from the answers. This can be done by using the multiple-variable matching method (Wu & Erickson, 2006).
