Best Test Design by Benjamin D. Wright & Mark H. Stone, 1979, $40
Explains Rasch test item analysis and person measurement,

Probability in the Measure of Achievement by George S. Ingebo, 1997 $25
Shows the advantages of Rasch measurement for school district testing
programs. Dr. George Ingebo contrasts the results of Rasch methods
with conventional statistics for assessing student responses to basic
skills testing. He presents testing issues in an accessible, down-to-
earth manner.
Chapter I shows how the Rasch probability-based method
produces measures that are more useful for students, parents,
teachers, administrators and researchers than information provided
by conventional population-based statistics.
Chapter 2 discusses the technology for designing and
maintaining a large bank of curriculum test items that facilitate a
reliable and precise measure of a student's ability growth between
fall and spring and from year to year.
Chapter 3 presents a dozen research projects comparing
conventional grade-level tests with Rasch calibrated levels-tests.
Their findings support the use of the Rasch testing model.
Chapter 4 offers a set of statistical comparisons of groups that
can be useful to school district Administrators.
This book takes the uncertainty of student
achievement testing out of the closet and looks it
over on purpose - not with some comforting
fiduciary limit, but with professional opinion
backed up by wisdom and by a feeling of
responsibility. 148 pp. Figs. ISBN 0-941938-09-3. LC# 97-076496.
