Its key benefit is that it offers an objective, standardized and valid method of measuring the key psychological skills critical for athletic success. In other words, it gives you an extra competitive edge to make your recruiting decisions even stronger. The WPAI can also be used for developmental purposes. Counselors, Sport Psychologists or coaches can use the WPAI to identify an athlete's potential strengths and weakness with respect to attitudes and behavioral tendencies associated with athletic success. The WPAI has been validated and normed with over 1,000 athletes.
Norms are also available for high school, collegiate and professional athletes.
A sampling of sports organizations that have benefited from use of the WPAI are the Miami Dolphins, the Boston Bruins, the Charlotte Hornets, Arizona State University, the University of Nebraska and more. The WPAI Assessment Report consists of various options that allows each customer to customize their reports based on the information they need. In addition to bar graphs depicting percentile and raw scores by dimension, additional options include a listing of question responses divided into areas of strength and areas for development, follow-up interview questions based on areas for development and a brief written description of each athlete's score by dimension. The idea is to be able to provide the customer with options that best suit their needs. In addition to the standard individual report, Ranking Reports are available.
