Review :
"This book is a comprehensive and well-illustrated overview of the concepts and applications of statistical test theory in the social sciences. ... Various concepts and methodologies are well explained and illustrated through examples that are accompanied with data-based examples. The language of the book is simple. The prerequisite knowledge of mathematics and statistics is kept to a minimum ...

This book can be adopted as a textbook in advanced undergraduate and graduate courses in the social sciences and can also be comprehensively used as a part of any course in applied statistics." -Journal of the Royal Statistical Society
