“Standardized testing is based on a scientific, rigorous process—on an independent scientific discipline known as psychometrics. Typically, the term refers not just to the administration and scoring of a test, but to a long process of test development, documentation, and validation, the actual conduct of assessments, feedback, and the ongoing maintenance of the resulting evaluation system.

What beneficiaries—students, parents, and often even teachers—see is just the tip of the iceberg: the direct interaction part.

In this volume, I hope to show readers a glimpse of the serious science behind these tests—and to convey the humanistic and modern principles, the care and commitment to fairness that underpin all serious standardized testing processes.” — DRAGOȘ ILIESCU
