"Knowledge is a process of piling up facts; wisdom lies in their simplification"
-Harold Fabing and Ray Marr
IAP’s and the MindHub™ emphasis on bridging the gap between psychological theory/research and practice is reflected in a variety of knowledge dissemination activities. These activities are in the form of free information via multiple formats and media. All resources are available for either on-line viewing or can be downloaded to your hard drive.

Applied Test Development Series (SlideShare PPT)
The Applied Test Development Series is a sequence of on-line SlideShare Power Point modules describing the development of psychological tests in the domain of cognitive ability using contemporary applied psychometrics methods such as theory-driven test specification, IRT-Rasch scaling, norming, etc. The presentations are conceptual and not statistical in nature.
- Part A: Planning, development frameworks & domain/test specification blueprints
- Part B: Test and tem development
- Part C: Use of Rasch technology
- Part D: Develop norm (standardization) plan
- Part E: Calculate norms and derived scores
- Part F: Psychometric/technical and statistical analysis: Internal
- Part G: Psychometric/technical and statistical analysis: External
