Product Description
Product Description
For undergraduate and graduate level introductory courses in psychological and educational measurement.
In this new edition of one of the best-known texts in the field, Thorndike once again provides all of the information future professionals need to know in order to develop the skills to use test information wisely, incorporating standard measurement concepts as they apply to both educational and psychological assessments his classic introduction to educational and psychological measurement provides a technically rigorous treatment of the core issues in measurement in an easy-to-read, easy-to-understand presentation. In preparing students to become independent users of test information, it describes problems in measurement, explains how these problems are approached and solved, surveys a broad range of sources, and provides guidance in how to find, evaluate, and use information about specific tests. The text's focus on basic issues in measurement provides a general overview that is not too specialized.

Measurement and Evaluation in Psychology and Education, 8 th Ed.
6 Feb 2011
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
Very informative book and useful for its intended purpose. However, small script size with poor color contrast make it a very difficult read. If you use glasses, get stronger ones. Mathematical problems could benefit from more solution examples.

Great text- old edition BETTER than new
14 Aug 2007
Format:Hardcover
I used this text in 2006 for a 300-level (upper-level undergraduate) psychology class called "Psychological Tests and Measures" that was taught by a PhD whose "thing" was tests and measures.
This text was better written than the following editions...and I paid next to nothing for it.
FYI I earned an A for the class and graduated with a BS in psychology last year.
ALSO GREAT STUDY MATERIAL FOR THE PSYCHOLOGY GRE!!!!!!!!!!!
