"This book continues to be a valuable reference book for researchers interested in the intricacies and nuances of scale development and evaluation. The authors present a broad, informative approach, and do so in a humorous and interesting manner, making this book an enjoyable book to read."--Journalof Biopharmaceutical Statistics"The purpose is to provide a resource to researchers in the health science on the subject of measurement. The book succeeds (as did prior editions) in covering aspects of psychosocial measurements with relevant health-related examples....The authors have added new material and expanded other material in important ways since the first edition. While all chapters are useful, the updated discussion of validity and the new secion on G-theory will stand out as important references for readers."--Doody's
