Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This latest volume in the series Psychological Assessment - Scienceand Practice describes the current state-of-the-art in test developmentand construction. The past 10-20 years have seen substantialadvances in the methods used to develop and administer tests. In thisvolume many of the world's leading authorities collate these advancesand provide information about current practices, thus equipping researchersand students to successfully construct instruments usingthe latest standards and techniques. The volume is organized into fiverelated sections. The first explains the benefits of considering the underlyingtheory when designing tests, with a focus on factor analysisand item response theory in construction. The second section looks atitem format and test presentation. The third discusses model testingand selection, while the fourth goes into statistical methods to identifygroup-specific biases. The final section discusses current topics ofspecial relevance, such as multi-trait multi-state analyses and developmentof screening instruments.…
