AssessmentPsychology.com
is viewed nearly 5,000 times a day by a
variety of users, most of whom are are
looking for information on psychological
assessment and testing. Many, however, are
looking only for information on
Internet acronyms,
abbreviations and emoticons. So, what's
the connection between this and psychology?
When
I created this page, I had little inkling
that this would become one of the most popular
pages on AssessmentPsychology.com. The truth
is, I thought that I and perhaps some of
my colleagues on the professional forums
I participate in would be the only users!
You see, the reason I created this page
was to provide me--and my colleagues--with
a singe, convenient reference for the new
terminology of these discussion groups--not,
as someone suggested in another forum, as
a clever way of drawing viewers to AssessmentPsychology.com.
From, what I have observed, few who come
to this page visit the rest of the site.
And that's fine, because this page is not
just for psychologists or those interested
in psychology. It is for everyone
of all interests, backgrounds,
and ages
who is looking for
a comprehensive list of
Internet acronyms,
abbreviations and emoticons--professionals,
educators, students, parents, and everyone
who participates in online discussion forums
or who needs a reference for deciphering
the many cryptic jottings that are the idiom
of the Internet. Use and enjoy!--Dr. Benet
