I'm using this book in class instead of the new version (that costs $185) and it's everything is exactly the same, other than all the page numbers are moved up 4 pages from everybody else's book. This book saved me $180 this semester!

I have read many books in the psychology field, and I thought this book did an excellent job of presenting clear and concise information on psychological testing. The book focused on the various testing techniques that are used in the psychology field. It raised important issues around how to appropriately apply testing and why we use them. i recommend this book to professionals in the field or to anyine who may have a curiosity about psychological testing in general. It's a real eye opener!Your interest won't fade out.

This textbook has been assigned for a class I am taking on Psychological Tests and Measurements. The writing style is rambling and disorganized, which is forgivable, however, within a single chapter (Chapter 2: Norms and Basic Statistics for Testing) I have come across several mathematical errors in the examples. This makes it nearly impossible to follow. If I hadn't already taken a few statistics courses, I don't think I would be able to decode what the authors are trying to teach. There are also errors in the informational charts in Appendix 1, which are necessary for my homework assignments. I realize that most people don't have any say in the textbooks they use, but if you have any choice in the matter I strongly urge you NOT to buy this book.

I primarily bought this book for a course that I am taking. As an I/O psychologist, I was hoping to have greater details into my particular field. There aren't sufficient samples to apply the theories discussed, however as the name of the book suggests, there are principles stated and issues, but few applications.

I ordered the book to ship with Expidited 2 Day shipping. It arrived 2 days later in great condition! The seller must have put it in the mail THAT day. I was really pleased with these results. Also, the book was in better condition than I expected. I expected there to be some highlighting and some underlining. So far, I haven't seen a single bit of marking in the entire book! It was also a really great price compared to the school's price. I saved around $80!!! I would definately recommend this seller and will buy from them again in the future!

great service and quality. very happy and would hightly recommend. The book arrived earlier that I expected and it was exactly as described. It was also a great price.

Purchased this book for an online class. The book came as promised in the condition it was promised and very timely. Have not started class yet, but would purchase from this person again.

This book is written at an undergraduate level, but used in graduate level courses. It is clearly written and easy to understand.

I needed this specific textbook for a class I am taking. For a tough subject, everything is explained very well, it's easy to follow and there are a lot of examples.

This product arrived in a timely fashion and is in perfect condition as stated. I recommend buying from this seller.
