Existing South African texts on psychological assessment are predominantly academic textbooks that explain psychometric theory and provide brief descriptions of a few testing instruments. Psychological Assessment in South Africa provides in-depth coverage of a range of areas within the broad field of psychological assessment, including research conducted with various psychological instruments. The chapters critically interrogate the current Eurocentric and Western cultural hegemonic practices that dominate the field of psychological assessment. The book therefore has the potential to function both as an academic text for graduate students, as well as a specialist resource for professionals, including psychologists, psychometrists, remedial teachers and human resource practitioners.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sumaya Laher\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1868145786\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781868145782\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wits University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 592\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.60h x 6.50w x 1.30d","brand":"Sumaya Laher","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48450035384575,"sku":"9781868145782","price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_29963da7-d510-45a8-adb9-cd2d9ca31281.jpg?v=1777265946","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/psychological-assessment-in-south-africa-sumaya-laher-9781868145782","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
