"A very clearly written book...I would recommend Bond & Fox to students and colleagues who have absolutely no knowledge of Rasch measurement."
―Randall Penfield, Ph.D.
University of Florida
"... it's the best book available for introducing IRT to novices ... My students have gained a good grasp of the what and why of Rasch from reading the book."
―Kathy E. Green, Ph.D.
University of Denver
"The first edition is an excellent teaching tool, and I think the revised version will be even better."
―George Engelhard, Ph.D.
Emory University
For many researchers the Rasch model provides a practical solution to data analysis in the social sciences. This work contends that Rasch measurement is "the model of choice" as it is the closest to realizing the sort of objective fundamental measurement so long revered in the physical sciences. The goals of this work are: to present an accessible overview of the basic properties and principles of Rasch analysis, that does not require a sophisticated statistical background; to demonstrate how Rasch analysis can be applied to a number of generic problems encountered by psychologists and educators; and to prepare readers for performing their own analyses and interpreting the results.
