For tests to be used most effectively, there must be a dialog between those who develop and administer tests and those who use the test scores to substantiate claims. Score reports are one-half of this dialog-missives from the former to the latter. Score Reporting Research and Applications is a must-read compendium of the challenges faced by those who prepare such reports and of practical solutions to those challenges. This volume leaves us ready to begin the second half of the conversation: how developers can improve tests by responding to users' needs. -Howard Wainer, statistician and author of Truth or Truthiness: Distinguishing Fact from Fiction by Learning to Think Like a Data Scientist
