Beschreibung
*Accessible reference and text on a critical topic--testing pervades society, yet students find its core concepts challenging.
*Class tested at two universities; the emphasis on conceptual understanding and application promotes critical thinking.
*Flexible organization enables researchers and students to review the basics or delve into advanced concepts as needed.
*Competing titles are pricey, dated, and not as reader friendly.
*Examples and discussions walk readers through critical decisions in the selection, administration, scoring, interpretation, and development of measurement instruments.|

Which types of validity evidence should be considered when determining whether a scale is appropriate for a given measurement situation? What about reliability evidence? Using clear explanations illustrated by examples from across the social and behavioral sciences, this engaging text prepares students to make effective decisions about the selection, administration, scoring, interpretation, and development of measurement instruments. Coverage includes the essential measurement topics of scale development, item writing and analysis, and reliability and validity, as well as more advanced topics such as exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis, item response theory, diagnostic classification models, test bias and fairness, standard setting, and equating. End-of-chapter exercises (with answers) emphasize both computations and conceptual understanding to encourage readers to think critically about the material. The companion website ([...]) provides annotated examples, syntax, and datasets in both SPSS and SAS (for most chapters), so that readers can redo the analyses in each chapter.
