Publisher's Synopsis
This practical book has been written to address a need for undergraduate and graduate students, teachers, and social researchers and professors. It proposes simple, step-by-step eight stages of test construction, with each chapter being concerned only with one stage. Each chapter starts with pre-reading advance organiser questions that also act as hands-on exercises about the main issues each chapter will raise. Moreover, the aim and objectives are stated at the beginning of each chapter to remind the readers of what they are expected to achieve by the end of every chapter. The book focuses on practice rather than theory since an actual test was used to act as a reference example to shows how each step and stage of the test construction process can be put into action.
