Reviews

'Thomas Salzberger has written an important book that discusses measurement in a very innovative way. He raises some crucial questions and, more importantly, provides meaningful answers, using real examples to add depth to the discussion. This is an important book for all business researchers, but particularly for those involved in cross-cultural and cross-national research. I strongly recommend the book to doctoral students, beginning researchers and experienced researchers who are interested in thinking about measurement differently.' - Geoff Soutar, University of Western Australia 'The book is a ground breaking contribution to psychometric measurement in scientific marketing research. It fundamentally challenges the traditional approaches by conceptually as well as empirically demonstrating that item response theory allows for a better assessment of latent variables. The new agenda of scale development and scale analysis is explicated in an easy to follow step by step manner. Dr. Salzberger's study provides a thought-provoking and hands on access for students and faculty alike to an innovative tool-box of measurement techniques.' - Hartmut H. Holzmuller, TU Dortmund University, Germany
