About this ebook

This book is an attempt to bridge, in part, a gap between theory and practice in educational tests and measurements. Most of the books on the subject have been rather technical, pre-supposing considerable training on the part of readers, or they have been manuals of directions for giving the tests and scoring the papers, with little reference to the problems confronting those attempting to measure educational processes and products. This book deals with this subject in an evolutionary fashion so that teachers and students may see how problems have arisen, the attempts at solutions, and therefore understand the principles of testing and measurement. The book aims to present these fundamental principles, as far as possible, in non-technical language, and to confine the statistical treatment of the data to simple operations in arithmetic.
