- Your students will get valuable practice in interpreting actual excerpts from published test manuals.

- Each of the 39 exercises begins with a guideline that helps students review the measurement concepts they will need in order to complete the exercise.

- Background notes on each exercise describe the purpose of the test from which the excerpt was drawn.

- Students answer questions that require them to locate and interpret important points in the excerpt.

- The excerpts are largely unabridged so that students practice interpreting material as it is actually presented by test makers.

- The skills they learn with this book can be easily transferred to other test manuals they may be using in the future.

- Students have an ethical responsibility to be thoroughly familiar with the technical characteristics of the tests they will use. This book prepares them for this responsibility.

- All major topics are covered, including:

- validity

- reliability

- standard error of measurement

- norm group composition

- derived scores

- scales to detect faking

- item analysis

- cultural bias

- The excerpts are drawn from tests such as:

- Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test

- 16PF

- Stanford Binet Intelligence Scale

- MMPI

- Beck Depression Inventory

- Stanford Achievement Test Series

- KeyMath

- and many others!
