- Psychometrics is a discipline within the field of Psychology that is concerned with the theory and techniques of psychosocial and educational assessment which include the measurement of human behavior, knowledge, abilities, attitudes, and personality traits. Psychometricians use their statistical and methodological expertise to design, develop, analyze, and interpret tests and assessments, and to evaluate programs and interventions.
- The Graduate Program in Psychometrics offers both an M.S. and a Ph.D. Our faculty members are committed to providing students with advanced training in quantitative measurement techniques and statistical analyses within the context of culturally diverse populations. With a focus on cultural responsiveness, the program places an emphasis on applied methodologies to train scholars to possess sophisticated analytic capabilities that can be used to design, assess, and utilize psychosocial and educational measures. Once they complete the program, graduates are qualified to enter a variety of careers including those in private industry, government, and academia.
