Educational Measurement has been the bible in its field since the
first edition was published by ACE in 1951. The importance fo this
fourth edition of Educational Measurement is to extensiely update
and extend the topics treated in the preious three editions. As
such, the fourth edition documents progress in the field and
provides critical guidance to the efforts of new generations of
researchers and practitioners. Edited by Robert Brennan and jointly
sponsored by the American Council on Education (ACE) and the
National Council on Measurement in Education, the fourth edition
provides in-depth treatments of critical measurement topics, and
the chapter authors are acknowledged experts in their respective
fields. Educational measurement researchers and practitioners will
find this text essential, and those interested in statistics,
psychology, business, and economics should also find this work to
be of very strong interest. Topics covered are divided into three
subject areas: theory and general principles; construction,
administration, and scoring; and applications. The first part of
the book covers the topics of validation, reliability, item
response theory, scaling and norming, linking and equating, test
fairness, and cognitive psychology. Part two includes chapters on
test development, test administration, performance assessment,
setting performance standards, and technology in testing. The final
section includes chapters on second language testing, testing for
accountability in K-12 schools, standardized assessment of
individual achievement in K-12 schools, higher education admissions
testing, monitoring educational progress, licensure and
certification testing, and legal and ethical issues.
