dc.description.abstract	Quantitative research in every branch of psychology involves the measurement of psychological constructs, and consumer psychology is no exception. The use of tools to measure psychological constructs is known as psychometrics. This chapter will outline the use of psychometric measures within consumer psychology and related fields – both in academic and practice settings – and discuss the theory underlying psychological measurement, before exploring the process by which these measures are developed by psychologists.
