Developing Norm-Referenced Standardized Tests
Transform your ideas and data into norm-referenced standardized tests with this “how-to” manual. Edited by the author of the Miller Assessment for Preschoolers (MAP), a nationally standardized, norm-referenced test, Developing Norm-Referenced Standardized Tests is designed specifically for occupational and physical therapists who have an interest in conducting research, either with established scientists or independently in order to pursue questions of interest.

Not only will professionals learn to develop new tests, but they will also increase their understanding of the process of test development for instruments which are already available.

Defining Art
In today's murky attempts to define art we see countless articles entitled "Is this Art?" or "What is Art?" Overlooked and forgotten is the definition of art simply provided by perhaps the founder of Western Civilization: Socrates. It is clearly stated in one of Plato's earliest Dialogues ION. In it, Socrates playfully questions an arrogant young actor, who claims all the credit for his achievement citing his skills. Socrates, instead, suggests that he is chosen as a channel (one of a chain of "divine" messengers) to deliver with force the message which came first to and through the poet (Homer), the first in the chain. The listener (audience) is the last in the chain, who becomes a messenge...
