This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book adapts Rasch's approach for quantifying growth on physiological variables, where growth decelerates, to intellectual variables. To apply this approach, it is necessary to construct measurements in a constant unit over the relevant range of the variable. With such measurements, the book illustrates the approach to quantifying growth on six intellectual variables - two intelligences tests and two each of tests of proficiencies in reading comprehension and mathematics. The book discusses how it is not immediately obvious that deceleration on a quantitative scale should also hold for the growth in intellectual variables. It goes on to show that this is indeed the case with all six tests analysed and considers some implications of this feature for understanding intellectual development, in particular the centrality of the growth trajectory set in early life. 264 pp. Englisch.

About the Author
Ida Marais is a Senior Research Fellow at the GSE Psychometric Laboratory, The University of Western Australia. After graduating with a BSc degree majoring in Computer Science and Psychology, she has worked as a computer analyst/programmer for a number of years before being awarded a University of Auckland Doctoral Scholarship and completing a MSc and PhD in Cognitive Psychology. Since then, Ida has been a researcher and lecturer in the fields of Psychology and Education in New Zealand and Australia. Her research activities focus on psychological and educational measurement, especially the measurement of change over time and simulation of data that violate the Rasch model. Ida's current research investigates the issue of maintaining invariant scales in state, national and international level assessments. She has written and continues to develop a data simulation program to study the implications of specific, various violations of responses according to the Rasch model, and the program is used by colleagues worldwide both for research and teaching of the Rasch model. Ida also jointly coordinates postgraduate units in Rasch measurement and supervises postgraduate students in educational measurement. She consults on a number of projects, including the audit of the Undergraduate Medicine and Health Sciences Admission test (UMAT) analysis and the analysis of the Australian national assessment Program (NAPLAN).
