Psychometrics 101
What It Is, Who It's Genuinely Useful For, And What To Check Before You Trust Any Result — Including Ours.
What Is Psychometrics?
The Word Psychometric Is Derived From Two Words “Psyche” – Mind; And “Metrics” – Measurement
Psychometric Instruments Are Set Of Questions Designed To Measure Some Characteristics Of The Human Mind Or Emotions. Because The Mind And Emotions Control Human Behavior, Accurate And Statistically Validated Psychometric Tests Have The Ability To Explain Human Behaviors.
Most Psychometric Assessments Available In Textbooks And Internet Sites Are Not Statistically Validated Or Reliable, Therefore They Are Not Accurate Measures Or Predictors Of Behavior.
All Psychometric Tests Published On Psychospace International Websites Are Statistically Validated. All Our Psychometric Tests Are Reliable For The Parameters They Measure. They Have Also Passed Through Very Rigorous Statistical Evaluation And Were Found To Possess Very High Face, Content, Constructs, And Criterion Validity For The Parameters They Measure.
