Intelligence Testing and Minority Students: Foundations, Performance Factors, and Assessment Issues (RACIAL ETHNIC MINORITY PSYCHOLOGY)
"At last – a book that is comprehensive, balanced and sensitive in its approach to the intellectual assessment of minority children. This book will quickly become a standard text in courses on assessment and diversity."  (Jonathan Sandoval)"Congratulations to Richard Valencia and Lisa Suzuki for producing a long overdue, comprehensive and balanced treatment of cognitive assessment for minority children. This volume should prove to be a great value for practitioners and researchers alike."(Terry Gutkin 2003-12-03)“I believe thatIntelligence Testing and Minority Studentsis absolutely outstanding. Valencia and Suzuki demonstrate unusually rich research-based, theoretical, practical, and clinical foundations for treating the important and thorough set of topics covered by the book. Their underlying compassion is also evident throughout the book. I recommend this book to everyone in the field of assessment; it is “must” reading for anyone who tests minority students.”  (Alan S. Kaufman 2003-12-03)"This book should be required reading for those who work in this field either in a research or clinical capacity, but is especially important for those who have reservations about the use of standardized tests for intellectual assessment. It is a highly valuable reference."    (Robert Rueda 2003-12-03)"This is a very rich resource on the history of "intelligence" testing and it's application to diverse ethnic groups. Theoretical and applied topics are well integrated in the discussions. Most important is the inclusion of the record of white supremacy ideology, the issues of cultural salience in measurement, and the issues of usage. I know of no other reference on this topic that is as comprehensive as is this one."  (Asa G. Hilliard III 2003-12-03)
