- Summary:
- For graduate and undergraduate students in the social, behavioral, and health sciences who are interested in measurement, Engelhard (educational measurement and policy, Emory U.) describes in detail the principles of invariant measurement, illustrates how invariant measurement can be achieved with Rasch measurement tools, and demonstrates the use of invariant measurement to solve measurement problems in those fields. He explains most of the mathematics needed, but suggests at least an introductory course in statistics. Annotation ©2013 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
