Produktbeschreibung
Presenting the major trends, theories and practices in cross-cultural assessment, this volume focuses on intelligence and intelligence testing, particularly as applied to people from racial and ethnic minority groups who are also socioeconomically and culturally deprived.

The book proposes alternative approaches to assessing cognitive ability in persons from such backgrounds.
