Abstract

With the increasing growth and success of cognitive treatments for a variety of psychopathological conditions, there has been an accompanying need to identify the cognitions associated with dysfunction, to quantify the changes in therapy, and to evaluate beliefs that predict treatment responsiveness. The cognitive measurement field has harvested a diverse range of assessment techniques and instruments. However, the research and development of cognitive assessment methods tends to neglect important principles in test and measurement construction that has made it more difficult for interesting techniques to find their way from the laboratory into clinical practice.
