Foundations of Psychological Testing: A Practical Approach provides students with a clear and accessible introduction to the field of psychological testing. The primary objective of this text is not to dwell on the details of individual psychological tests, but to focus on the testing process and the core psychometric concepts required to gain an appreciation of how to use and interpret tests properly. Written in response to a growing need for a textbook on psychological testing conducive to student learning, this book gives students an understanding of the basic concepts, issues, and tools used in psychological testing. It then effectively illustrates how these concepts, issues, and tools are relevant to everyday educational, clinical, and organizational settings.
