Presented an outline of the development of a semi‐automated full psychological test battery. Focus is on the interpretation and narrative of the report. The format for the development of interpretive statements that cover the entire test battery content is presented on both objective tests and projective instruments. A sample case report is included. This procedure, which utilizes an automated typewriter, focuses on the development of a semiautomated method that can be employed by the individual psychologist who does not have access to extensive computer facilities. The Semi‐Automated Full Battery is a method that can lessen significantly the time and much of the repetition entailed in psychological report writing.
