Rasch Bookshelf, Wilmott, Fowles, Hashway

The objective interpretation of test performance. Alan S. Wilmott and Diana E. Fowles. England: NFER & Atlantic Heights NJ: Humanities Press, 1974.

This slim and friendly book describes the Rasch model non- mathematically. The principles of objective measurement are outlined, and then, with examples from the British examination system, the practical meaning of sample-free item calibration and item-free person measurement are demonstrated.

Objective Mental Measurement. Robert M. Hashway. New York: Praeger Publishers, 1978.

Considerable mathematical knowledge is required to benefit from this book. A detailed contrast of Rasch and traditional techniques, is followed by a discussion of the use of Rasch measures in individual assessment and group evaluation, including hypothesis testing.
