Psychological testing is administered in a variety of settings and various personnel. In addition to their traditional use in education and health-related fields, tests are also used in the evaluation and selection of employees in business, government and the military to determine placement, promotion, certification or licensing and are also used to evaluate the effects of instruction, training, and intervention programs on behavior. This book shows researchers, students and other professionals how to design, construct and evaluate psychological tests and includes a set of computer programs (IBM, 3.5" disk) readers can use to design their own assessment tools.
