The emergence of digital technology in the field of psychological and educational measurement and assessment broadens the traditional concept of pencil and paper tests. New assessment models built on the proliferation of smartphones, social networks and software developments are opening up new horizons in the field.
This study is divided into four sections, each discussing the benefits and limitations of a specific type of technology-based assessment: ambulatory assessment, social networks, gamification and forced-choice testing.
The latest developments are clearly relevant in the field of psychological and educational measurement and assessment. Among other benefits, they bring greater ecological validity to the assessment process and eliminate the bias associated with retrospective assessment.
Some of these new approaches point to a multidisciplinary scenario with a tradition which has yet to be created. Psychometrics must secure a place in this new world by contributing sound expertise in the measurement of psychological variables. The challenges and debates facing the field of psychology as it incorporates these new approaches are also discussed.
数字技术在心理和教育测量评估领域的出现拓宽了传统纸笔测试的概念。基于智能手机、社交网络和软件开发的新型评估模型正在为该领域开辟新的视野。
本研究分为四个部分，分别讨论了基于技术的评估的特定类型的优势和局限性：移动评估、社交网络、游戏化和迫选测试。
最新的发展在心理和教育测量评估领域具有明显的相关性。除其他好处外，它们为评估过程带来了更大的生态有效性，并消除了与回顾性评估相关的偏差。
这些新方法中的一些方法指向了一个具有尚未建立的传统的多学科场景。心理计量学必须通过在心理变量的测量方面提供可靠的专业知识，在这个新世界中占据一席之地。还讨论了该领域在采用这些新方法时面临的挑战和争议。
