\n\nAbout the Book<\/span><\/h3>\nEducational and Psychological Measurement<\/em>, Second Edition, offers a broad, contemporary introduction to educational and psychological measurement and psychometrics. Beginning with foundational statistical concepts and classical test theory, the book progresses through reliability, generalizability theory, interrater agreement, factor analysis, validity, item analysis, and modern psychometric models.<\/p>\nThe book also addresses advanced topics central to contemporary assessment, including item response theory (IRT), differential item functioning, cognitive diagnostic models, equating and scaling, standard setting, and computer adaptive testing. The second edition expands the coverage of emerging issues in assessment, including fairness and the use of artificial intelligence in testing and assessment.<\/p>\n
