| Summary: | "Standardized testing is used for diagnosis, selection, and measuring of achievement in many social fields, including psychology, education, employment, and professional credentialing. Its benefits are numerous and substantial but are not well articulated or well publicized. Measurement specialists are mainly positive about the worth of standardized testing. Meanwhile, sources that engage public debate tend to be less scientifically informed and more negative about the value of testing. Standardized testing bears the twin burden of controversy and complexity and is difficult for many to understand either dispassionately or technically. In response to this reality, this book describes the current state of public debate about testing across fields, explains and refutes the primary criticisms of testing, acknowledges the limitations and undesirable consequences of testing, provides suggestions for improving testing practices, and presents a vigorous defense of testing as well as a practical vision for its promise and future"--Cover.
