Proceedings of the NATO Advanced Study Institute, Athens, Greece,
December 10-20, 1984
In Decembe, r, 1984 a NATO-sponsored Advanced Study Institute
entitled "Human Asessment: Cognition and Motivation" took place in
Athens. It succeeded in attracting a great many of the most eminent
scholars and researchers in this area, both as lecturers and
participants. The contributors to this book are mostly members of
staff who taught at the Institute. The chapters they have written
are designed to provide an introduction to the principal issues
that arise in the study of the assessment of intelligence and
cognition. Since most of the protagonists are represented in this
book the student is provided with an excellent overview. Many
different people are responsible for preparation of a book such as
this. We would like to express particular thanks to Siobhan Breslin
and Julie Coleman, who typed the text despite an unfriendly and
unreliable word-processing system. Thanks are also due to Steve
Gill who helped with the preparation of the figures. Finally, as a
mark of respect for his achievements and leadership in the field of
mental measurement, we dedicate this volume to Norman Frederiksen.
