STANDARDIZED TESTING PRIMER COUNTERPOINTS PRI...

The Standardized Testing Primer provides non-specialists with a thorough overview of this
controversial and complicated topic. It eschews the statistical details of scaling  scoring 
and measurement that are widely available in textbooks and at testing organization Web sites 
and instead describes standardized testing's social and political roles and its practical uses
- who tests  when  where  and why. Topics include: an historical background of testing's
practical uses in psychology  education  and the workplace  the varied structures of
educational testing programs and systems across countries  the mechanics of test development
and quality assurance  and current trends in test development and administration. A glossary
and bibliography are also provided. The Standardized Testing Primer is an ideal text for
teaching this subject to undergraduate and graduate students.
