Summary

Psychological Testing and Assessment presents students with a solid grounding in psychometrics and the world of testing and assessment.

Now in its eighth edition, this text has consistently won enthusiastic reviews not only for its balance of breadth and depth of coverage, but for content that brings a human face to the assessment enterprise.
