Product Description
Product Description
Since publication in its first edition the Handbook of Psychological Testing has become the standard text for organisational and educational psychologists. It offers the only comprehensicve, modern and clear account of the whole of the field of psychometrics. It covers psychometric theory, the different kinds of psychological test, applied psychological testing, and the evaluation of the best published psychological tests. It is outstanding for its detailed and complete coverage of the field, its clarity (even for the non-mathematical) and its emphasis on the practical application of psychometric theory in psychology and education, as well as in vocational, occupational and clinical fields.
For this second edition the Handbook has been extensively revised and updated to include the latest research and thinking in the field. Unlike other work in this area, it challenges the scientific rigour of conventional psychometrics and identifies groundbreaking new ways forward.

An excellent introduction, 19 Feb 1998
By bruno@enterprise.net - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Handbook of Psychological Testing (Paperback)
As a lay person who has been subjected to personality tests in a child care court matter I was interested to find out how reliable these tests are. I found what I was looking for and realised that the psychologist carrying out these tests and making adverse comments on me was of the incompetent variety - as I thought at the time. Now I realise why from a more technical point of view. I am now looking for comments about interpretation of the specific tests - and a critique of those specific tests used on me and how these tests should be "qualified as to their limitations" in court reports by psychologistsTo what extent can these test results be extrapolated to predict reactions in typical stress situations?
