LAROS, Jacob Arie y ANDRADE, Josemberg Moura de. Large-Scale Psychological Assessments and Learning Assessments: Guidelines for Researchers. Aval. psicol. [online]. 2022, vol.21, n.4, pp. 397-406. ISSN 1677-0471. http://dx.doi.org/10.15689/ap.2022.2104.24199.03.
Psychological assessment (PA) and educational assessment (EA) are among the most important contributions of cognitive and behavioral sciences to modern society. They provide important information about individuals and groups that are a part of the society. The aim of this article is to present guidelines for researchers regarding PA and large-scale learning assessments (LSLAs). The paths of PA in a world in health crisis due to the Covid-19 pandemic are discussed. In the context of LSLAs, we discuss theoretical, methodological and analytical aspects that must be considered by evaluators and researchers in the area. We conclude that PA and LSLAs are related to the extent that both fulfill the social function of identifying gaps that deserve attention, as well as functional aspects that must be maintained and encouraged. Another important characteristic is the requirement for constant technical improvement by both evaluators and researchers.
