This review is from: Psychological Testing: Principles and Applications (5th Edition) (Hardcover)
My psychometrics class (in a doctoral psychology program) was assigned this book as the primary textbook. While it gives a decent foundation for some psychometrics principles, it does a horrible job of explaining the nitty-gritty details, particularly because the book contains numerous typographic errors. The professor ended up awarding quite a bit of extra credit to the numerous students who caught typographic errors. The errors definitely create an obstacle to learning the material, and sometimes the errors actually seem to skew the direction of the material. Even numerical errors occur, such as replacing a negative sign (-) with the number 2. Terrible for a textbook whose backbone is statistics!
