Riassunto:

Trevor Bond has worked with leading Rasch theoreticians for more than 15 years, advising developmentalists and teachers on how to conduct and interpret Rasch analyses of their own data. The goals of this authored volume are:

• to present an accessible overview of the basic properties and principles of Rasch analysis, that does not require a sophisticated statistical background;
• to demonstrate how Rasch analysis can be applied to generic problems encountered by psychologists and educators; and
• to prepare readers for performing their own analyses and interpreting the results.

This book is ideal for researchers in the human sciences interested in learning how to implement the Rasch model with their own data.

Recensione:

"A very clearly written book...I would recommend Bond & Fox to students and colleagues who have absolutely no knowledge of Rasch measurement."
―Randall Penfield, Ph.D.
University of Florida

"... it's the best book available for introducing IRT to novices ... My students have gained a good grasp of the what and why of Rasch from reading the book."
―Kathy E. Green, Ph.D.
University of Denver

"The first edition is an excellent teaching tool, and I think the revised version will be even better."
―George Engelhard, Ph.D.
Emory University
