Description: This book is intended as a basic text for courses in psychological and educational measurement and as a handbook for clinical and school psychologists, counselors, and school administrators. It emphasizes the practical uses of tests and other evaluative instruments in schools and clinics. The inclusion of material not readily available elsewhere on the interpretation of individual and group scores, the measurement of change, the measurement of over- and underachievement, and school marking procedures makes this book particularly suitable for graduate courses in educational measurement. The types of tests and test interpretation discussed in this book are limited to those that can appropriately be used by psychologists, counselors, teachers, and other school personnel who do not have extensive clinical experience involving approved supervised training in clinical practice.
Notes: Includes bibliographies.
