"Passmore provides an overview of some of the key psychometric tests that executive coaches, consultants, and human resources managers can use to develop individuals in and out of the workplace. For coaches new to psychometric testing, the first two chapters of the book explain basic concepts such as validity and reliability, and offer insight on giving feedback. In the rest of the book, international contributors, including coaching practitioners and psychometricians, explain the theory and research underpinning specific instruments, and give tips on how to select and apply them effectively. The book is for new and experienced practitioners using psychometric tests, as well as students in psychology, psychometrics, business, and human resources management." - Book News Inc.
