Description: Very good in very good dust jacket. Don't waste your money on the 5th edition which is way overpriced. This listing is for the 4th edition. This is NOT for the cheap, lower quality International Edition. The only differences you can expect from a newer edition are a new book cover, a small update, and slightly different page numbers which are definitely NOT worth the enormous additional expense. We Guarantee that you can use this earlier edition for your class and save money. If you aren't ... read more
This book was a BEAST to read. The only reason it is receiving 2, and not 1 star is that the last chapters were actually somewhat interesting, discussing the legal ramifications of testing (including a blurb about how the Texas Education Agency was sued in 2000 over the TAAS. Lucky residents of Texas now have the new and improved TAKS--note the sarcasm).
I also, despite my hatred of this book, liked the discussion of career, interest and personality tests. (All 1.5 chapters devoted to it.) Since I believe these to be the tests that I will actually find myself using as a school counselor.
I now have a research-based hardened look at all the standardized tests I have ever taken or administered. My conclusion: tests suck."
"This text was required for a graduate course in Tests and Measurement. It appears to do a thorough job of providing information required. Alibris provided superb service in getting this book to me in record time as well as cheaper than the university's bookstore!!! Yeah, Alibris!!!"
