9th International Psychometric Symposium Alija Kulenović

It is a great pleasure to announce the 9th Symposium dedicated to the memory of Professor Alija Kulenović. We have again the opportunity to get together an enthusiastic group of colleagues and researchers devoted to the study of psychological measurement, be they interested primarily in its conceptual, methodological or applied aspects. We are pleased to note that some of the authors to present at the 9th Psychometric symposium never missed the event, many authors took part repeatedly, and still, with every new symposium several new, typically young colleagues join us actively with their novel research contributions. Yet, as always, the whole event is inspired by and an occasion to bring back recalls of the authority of our professor and friend, Alija Kulenović. The program of the 9th Symposium includes nine contributions covering topics that largely fall within three main subject areas. Several talks thus largely center around the problems of comparability of test scores across different circumstances, offering demonstrations of a novel approach to the measurement invariance issues (G. Sočan & G. Zager Kocjan), evaluations of temporal stability of a specific measurement model of face cognition instruments (U. Mikac et al.), consideration of cross-cultural comparisons exemplified by emotional intelligence data (A. Ćosić Pilepić et al.) or the degree of equivalence of test scores over alternate forms of an attitude scale (F. Prot et al.). Two presentations demonstrate the advantages of particular modelling solutions in answering specific research hypotheses (D. B. Ćepulić et al. ; B. Rebernjak). The remaining contributions mainly focus on applied issues typically dealing with usability of tests or test batteries for selection purposes (G. Sočan et al.) including other indices of psychometric quality of tests (K. Polgar & D. Ljubotina ; N. Erceg et al.).
