It focuses on the use of classical test theory (CTT) and item response theory (IRT), which are often required in the fields of psychology (e.g. for measuring psychological traits), health (e.g. for measuring the severity of disorders), and education (e.g. for measuring student performance), and makes these analytical tools accessible to a broader audience. Having taught assessment subjects to students from diverse backgrounds for a number of years, the three authors have a wealth of experience in presenting educational measurement topics, in-depth concepts and applications in an accessible format. As such, the book addresses the needs of readers who use CTT and IRT in their work but do not necessarily have an extensive mathematical background. The book also sheds light on common misconceptions in applying measurement models, and presents an integrated approach to different measurement methods, such as contrasting CTT with IRT and multidimensional IRT models with unidimensional IRT models. Wherever possible, comparisons between models are explicitly made. In addition, the book discusses concepts for test equating and differential item functioning, as well as Bayesian IRT models and plausible values using simple examples. This book can serve as a textbook for introductory courses on educational measurement, as supplementary reading for advanced courses, or as a valuable reference guide for researchers interested in analyzing student assessment data.StatisticsSocial sciencesStatistical methodsEducational tests and measurementsMathematicsSocial sciencesComputer softwareStatistical Theory and MethodsStatistics in Social Sciences, Humanities, Law, Education, Behavorial Sciences, Public PolicyAssessment and TestingMathematics in the Humanities and Social SciencesMathematical SoftwareStatistics.Social sciencesStatistical methods.Educational tests and measurements.Mathematics.Social sciences.Computer software.Statistical Theory and Methods.Statistics in Social Sciences, Humanities, Law, Education, Behavorial Sciences, Public Policy.Assessment and Testing.Mathematics in the Humanities and Social Sciences.Mathematical Software.370.72Wu Margaretauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut755893Tam Hak Pingauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autJen Tsung-Hauauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910158844503321Educational Measurement for Applied Researchers2053555UNINA02275nam 2200697 a 450 991100656420332120200520144314.097866133195869781621983347162198334X97812833195841283319586(CKB)2550000000064225(EBL)797495(OCoLC)763156983(SSID)ssj0000538449(PQKBManifestationID)12250100(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000538449(PQKBWorkID)10574287(PQKB)10982527(MiAaPQ)EBC797495(CaSebORM)9780814417386(OCoLC)780679134(OCoLC)ocn780679134 (Perlego)728212(FR-PaCSA)88810906(FRCYB88810906)88810906(EXLCZ)99255000000006422520110623d2012 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrLead with purpose giving your organization a reason to believe in itself /John Baldoni1st editionNew York American Management Associationc20121 online resource (301 p.)Description based upon print version of record.9780814417386 0814417388 9780814417393 0814417396 Includes bibliographical references and index.Lead for purpose -- Inspire purposeful people -- Make ambiguity comfortable by clarifying purpose -- Turn purpose into great results -- How strong purpose makes it safe to fail (as well as to prevail) -- Develop the next generation of purposeful leaders -- Steel your own purpose.Does your company know where it's going?LeadershipEmployee motivationOrganizational behaviorLeadership.Employee motivation.Organizational behavior.658.4/092Baldoni John1615885MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9911006564203321Lead with purpose4393037UNINA
