    Psychometrics is the field of studying the measurement of knowledge, abilities, attitudes, and personality traits through educational and psychological testing. It involves constructing and validating measurement instruments like questionnaires and tests, as well as developing theoretical approaches to measurement. Psychometricians practice psychometrics through constructing measurement tools and refining measurement theories, and hold separate qualifications specific to psychometrics regardless of other professional roles.

    Psychometrics is the field of study concerned with the theory and technique of educational

    measurement and psychological measurement, which includes the measurement of


    knowledge, abilities, attitudes, and personality traits. The field is primarily concerned with
    the construction and validation of measurement instruments, such as questionnaires, tests, and
    personality assessments.

    It involves two major research tasks, namely: (i) the construction of instruments and
    procedures for measurement; and (ii) the development and refinement of theoretical
    approaches to measurement. Those who practice psychometrics are known as
    psychometricians and although they may also be clinical psychologists, they are not obliged
    to be so and could instead be (for example) human resources or learning and development
    professionals. Either way specific, separate, qualifications in psychometrics are required.
