Abstract: The fifth edition of "Educational Measurement" represents the first version of this volume produced solely by the National Council on Measurement in Education (NCME). This volume, like the previous four editions, provides cutting edge research and guidance on all major topics in the field of measurement science, with chapters written by acknowledged experts in their respective fields. Edited by Linda L. Cook and Mary J. Pitoniak, this edition contains 21 chapters separated into four parts. Part I provides a framing chapter for the volume, as well as chapters on the history of educational measurement and the sociocultural context of educational assessment. Part II addresses the foundational topics of validity and validation; reliability; and fairness theory and concepts. Part III includes new theories and technical advances in topics such as designing and developing assessments; test administration and scoring; technology-based assessment; modeling educational assessment data; scaling, equating and linking; standard setting; score reporting; and fairness through accessibility for all test takers and specific groups. Part IV includes chapters on assessment to inform teaching and learning; test-based accountability in K-12 education; assessment for higher education; licensing and certification assessment; assessment of interpersonal and intrapersonal skills; and large-scale assessments in international contexts. Part V provides an extensive discussion on the nature of measurement.
