This latest volume in the series Psychological Assessment - Science§and Practice describes the current state-of-the-art in test development§and construction. The past 10-20 years have seen substantial§advances in the methods used to develop and administer tests.

The volume is organized into five§related sections. The first explains the benefits of considering the underlying§theory when designing tests, with a focus on factor analysis§and item response theory in construction. The second section looks at§item format and test presentation. The third discusses model testing§and selection, while the fourth goes into statistical methods to identify§group-specific biases. The final section discusses current topics of§special relevance, such as multi-trait multi-state analyses and development§of screening instruments.
