Assessment is an important part of any psychologist's role and the
outcome can have consequences, positive and negative, for the
person being assessed. Principles and practices of psychological
assessment is a guide to drawing up, administering and interpreting
assessment procedures, and judging whether the techniques used are
theoretically and procedurally sound. It also takes a special look
at assessment from an organisational perspective, because although
many of the technical and scientific issues with respect to
psychological assessment are common to all areas of applied
psychology, there are numerous issues and applications that are
unique to the organisational context. Principles and practices of
psychological assessment is more of a "how to" than a critical
text, but includes some background information and in-depth
theorising for more problematic issues. A glossary of terms and a
unique cognitive map of psychological tests are provided. Contents
include the following: Properties of a good measuring technique;
ways of categorising the observation process; techniques used in
measurement; errors inherent in the assessment process; fairness,
bias and discrimination; combining and interpreting results;
designing and locating appropriate assessment centre exercises.
