the very best grad-level overview
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
Inappropriate for undergrads but ideal for grad students. Anastasi's classic text (now updated), has transformed generations of "intuitive" clinicians-in-training into serious behavioral scientists. Note that this is _not_ a great sourcebook for how to administer or evaluate _specific_ tests... Rather, it is an outstanding discussion of the science of assessment, e.g., in _general_, what would it mean for a questionnaire to be "valid"? Or, in _general_, what would it mean for a test to be "biased"?
Excellent, clear, sound and reliable

After having studied Psychological Testing as a required textbook in an undergraduate course, I have repeatedly gone back to it (and its latest editions) to check on things I may have forgotten. I have often used it to learn the foundations of testing and have been able to devise and improve my own occasional tests, as well as to be able to evaluate tests I have seen elsewhere. Anyone using or reading any test at all needs to know the theory, and this book explains it fully, soundly, and well.
