This is the first practitioner-oriented guide to basic
psychometrics--the science behind test construction and validation.
It is an essential course text and clinical reference for anyone
who needs to select and administer diagnostic tests or review test
score data obtained by others. Without assuming any mathematical
background, the author describes the fundamentals of diagnostic
testing, how to interpret score data, and how specific tests are
used in school psychology, special education, counseling, and other
contexts. Concepts such as reliability, validity, and fairness and
test bias are explained in an accessible, conversational way.
Detailed case examples illustrate the dos and don'ts of presenting
test score data to clients, parents, and teachers in oral feedback
and written reports. Pedagogical Features: *End-of-chapter
exercises that emphasize application and understanding, with
answers at the end of the book. *Key terms are bolded throughout
and accessibly explained in the end-of-book glossary. *Resource
appendix--annotated guide to articles and books on more advanced
topics in psychometrics, assessment, and testing.
