I have two primary research interests. My first interest lies in the development, understanding, and application of psychometric theory useful in test construction and evaluation. I investigate the full ramifications of measurement error on both psychological assessment and psychological theory, with particular interest in the effects of measurement error on the assessment of change. My second interest involves understanding the processes underlying interpersonal perception and the making of social judgments. Using a technique called sociometry, I have developed mathematical models which attempt to illuminate the processes humans use in understanding their social world and in relating to their peers. |
