Contemporary Psychometrics features cutting edge chapters organized
in four sections: test theory, factor analysis, structural equation
modeling, and multivariate analysis. The section on test theory
includes topics such as multidimensional item response theory
(IRT), the relationship between IRT and factor analysis, estimation
and testing of these models, and basic measurement issues that are
often neglected. The factor analysis section reviews the history
and development of the model, factorial invariance and factor
analysis indeterminacy, and Bayesian inference for factor scores
and parameter estimates. The section on structural equation
modeling (SEM) includes the general algebraic-graphic rules for
latent variable SEM, a survey of goodness of fit assessment, SEM
resampling methods, a discussion of how to compare correlations
between and within independent samples, dynamic factor models based
on ARMA time series models, and multi-level factor analysis models
for continuous and discrete data. The final section on multivariate
analysis includes topics such as dual scaling of ordinal data,
model specification and missing data problems in time series
models, and a discussion of the themes that run through all
multivariate methods. This tour de force through contemporary
psychometrics will appeal to advanced students and researchers in
the social and behavioral sciences and education, as well as
methodologists from other disciplines.
