Synopsis

This accessible and engaging book for undergraduates is less cluttered with details than other books for the course and students like to read it! It offers an up-to-date analysis of the most widely-used tests in educational, industrial, clinical, and health settings. The Third Edition features a significant increase in the number of test profiles, sample items, and figures, while it addresses timely and controversial topics such as nationalized testing, test bias, and cross-cultural issues. Kaplan and Saccuzzo cover the technical principles of test evaluation and construction in a concise, comprehendible manner, using practical examples from ''real life.'' Assuming no theoretical background and little knowledge of statistics, the book provides thorough coverage of basic statistical concepts while ensuring an understanding of important principles.
