Basic to using the results of measurement is the interpretation of scores. A test score is merely a number, devoid of meaning in and by itself. Not until it is related to something does it become meaningful and thus useful. Before we proceed with a discussion of the various uses of test results, it would be well to take another look at a device which facilities interpretation. This is the profile, a graphic method of depicting the results of the testing of individuals and of groups. About Author : Professor D.
