Classic and Contemporary
Approaches to Test Theory

Psychology 842
Fall 2007

Note: We're meeting in 347 Davie Hall Wednesdays from 9:30-11:50.

Brief Course Description

This course is divided into three sections, each corresponding to a major theoretical emphasis in test theory. These perspectives are: Classical test theory, generalizability theory, and item response theory. Each of these sections will be dealt with in turn, and discussion will focus on both their theoretical contributions to the field, as well as their implementation. The seminar requirements are a class presentation, a final paper, and active participation in the course.
