3. THE SCIENCE BEHIND PSYCHOMETRIC TESTS
The science behind psychometric tests encompasses principles of measurement, statistics, and psychology. Here's a breakdown:
Reliability:
1.
Psychometric tests must be reliable, meaning they consistently measure what they are intended to measure.
Types of reliability include:
Test-Retest Reliability: Consistency of scores when the same test is administered to the same group of people at
different points in time.
Internal Consistency Reliability: Consistency of scores across items within the same test.
Inter-Rater Reliability: Consistency of scores when different raters score the same test or assessment.
Validity:
2.
Validity refers to the extent to which a test measures what it claims to measure.
Types of validity include:
Content Validity: The degree to which a test covers the relevant content or domain it intends to measure.
Criterion-Related Validity: The extent to which scores on a test correlate with an external criterion (e.g., performance
on a job).
Construct Validity: The degree to which a test accurately measures an abstract construct or trait (e.g., intelligence,
personality).
Standardization:
3.
Psychometric tests are standardized to ensure consistency in administration, scoring, and interpretation.
Standardization involves establishing norms or reference groups against which individual scores can be compared.
Standardized procedures minimize sources of error and bias, making test results more reliable and valid.
