Quantitative Measurement Psychology

Psychologists who specialize in quantitative measurement focus on methods and techniques for acquiring and analyzing psychological data. Some develop new methods for performing analysis; others create research strategies to assess the effect of social and educational programs and psychological treatment. They develop and evaluate mathematical models for psychological tests. They also propose methods for evaluating the quality and fairness of the tests.
