Health care services, child welfare services, and educational institutions in Norway have implemented routine use of tests and measurement tools to examine mental health, psychosocial problems, abilities, and skills in children and young people. We lack systematic knowledge of the psychometric properties of many of the tests in use.
PsykTestBarn is an Open Access journal publishing peer-reviewed scientific articles on psychometric properties of the Norwegian versions of tests and measurement instruments relevant to these fields. The articles are syntheses of existing studies conducted in Scandinavia. PsykTestBarn is approved by the Norwegian University and College Council's publication committee (Scientific level 1). The purpose of PsykTestBarn is to contribute to inform the use of sound tests and measurement instruments in both applied and research settings.
