An Introduction to Psychometrics and Psychological Assessment Using Interpreting and Developing Tests

An Introduction to Psychometrics and Psychological Assessment is the successor to Cooper’s prize-winning book Psychological Testing: Theory and Practice. This expanded and updated volume shows how psychological questionnaires and tests can be chosen administered scored interpreted and developed. In providing students researchers test users test developers and practitioners in the social sciences education and health with an evaluative guide to choosing using interpreting and developing tests it provides readers a thorough grasp of the principles (and limitations) of testing together with the necessary methodological detail. This book has three distinctive features. First it stresses the basic logic of psychological assessment without getting bogged down with mathematics; the spreadsheet simulations and utilities which are integrated into the text allow users to explore how numbers behave rather than reading equations. Readers will learn by doing. Second it covers both the theory behind psychological assessment and the practicalities of locating designing and using tests and interpreting their scores. Finally it is evaluative. Rather than just describing concepts such as test reliability or adaptive testing it stresses the underlying principles merits and drawbacks of each approach to assessment and methods of developing and evaluating questionnaires and tests. Unusually for an introductory text it includes coverage of several cutting-edge techniques and this new edition expands the discussion on measurement invariance methods of detecting/quantifying bias and hierarchical factor models and features added sections on: Best practices for translation of tests into other languages and problems of cultural bias Automatic item generation The advantages drawbacks and practicalities of internet-based testing Generalizability theory Network analysis Dangerous assumptions made when scoring tests The accuracy of tests used for assessing individuals The two-way relationship between psychometrics and psychological theory Aimed at non-mathematicians this friendly and engaging text will help you to understand the fundamental principles of psychometrics that underpin the measurement of any human characteristic using any psychological test. Written by a leading figure in the field and accompanied by additional resources including a set of spreadsheets which use simulated data and other techniques to illustrate important issues this is an essential introduction for all students of psychology and related disciplines. It assumes very little statistical background and is written for students studying psychological assessment or psychometrics and for researchers and practitioners who use questionnaires and tests to measure personality cognitive abilities educational attainment mood or motivation. | An Introduction to Psychometrics and Psychological Assessment Using Interpreting and Developing Tests

Food and Nutrition provides a comprehensive overview of food components and the biochemistry of foods and digestion. It outlines nutrition needs at different life stages dietary disorders and social and cultural influences on food selection and consumption. It also explores the increasing influence of technology on agriculture and food preparation and recent research into intergenerational nutrition and nutrigenomics. At every stage it points to how you can impact your own health and the health of others as a global citizen and as a health or other food-system-related professional.

Antimicrobials in Food

Antimicrobials in Food

Fifteen years have passed since the 3rd edition of Antimicrobials in Food was published. It was arguably considered the must-have reference for those needing information on chemical antimicrobials used in foods. In the years since the last edition the food industry has undergone radical transformations because of changes on several fronts. Reported consumer demands for the use of natural and clean-label antimicrobials have increased significantly. The discovery of new foodborne pathogen niches and potentially hazardous foods along with a critical need to reduce food spoilage waste has increased the need for suitable antimicrobial compounds or systems. Novel natural antimicrobials continue to be discovered and new research has been carried out on traditional compounds. These and other related issues led the editors to develop the 4th edition of Antimicrobials in Food. In the 4th edition the editors have compiled contemporary topics with information synthesized from internationally recognized authorities in their fields. In addition to updated information new chapters have been added in this latest release with content on the use of bacteriophages lauric arginate ester and various systems for antimicrobial encapsulation and delivery. Comprehensive revisions of landmark chapters in previous editions including naturally occurring antimicrobials from both animal and plant sources methods for determining antimicrobial activity new approaches to multifactorial food preservation or hurdle technology and mechanisms of action resistance and stress adaptation are included. Complementing these topics is new information on quantifying the capability of clean antimicrobials for food preservation when compared to traditional food preservatives and industry considerations when antimicrobials are evaluated for use in food manufacture. Features Covers all food antimicrobials natural and synthetic with the latest research on each type Contains 5 000+ references on every conceivable food antimicrobial Guides in the selection of appropriate additives for specific food products Includes innovations in antimicrobial delivery technologies and the use of multifactorial food preservation with antimicrobials
