Bangladesh Psychometric Society (BPS) is founded by a group of academicians and practitioners dedicated to developing an efficient workforce with substantial knowledge of psychometrics. We tend to bridge the gap that exists in different disciplines caused by the dearth of proper and adequate understanding of psychometrics. Bangladesh Psychometrics Society (BPS) commits to cater to the need for advancing knowledge of psychometrics among students, teachers, professionals, practitioners, educators, policy-makers of home and abroad in an effortless, systematic, and comprehensive way.
With the slogan ‘Work for Fairness, Justice, and Elimination of Discrimination’ in its heart, BPS dreams of a balanced society in particular and a world in general where equality and equity will be ensured by applying psychometric principles and processes in all spheres of lives wherever applicable. We are working towards developing skilled psychometricians whose solemn duty will be to strive toward achieving those goals by collecting, analyzing, evaluating, and interpreting psychometric data in a meaningful and efficient way.
Our Mission
No single human is identical. We differ in terms of our physiological aspects (height, weight, skin color) and psychological aspects (ability, aptitude, achievement, Intelligence, & personality trait). It is indispensable to understand and quantify these differences to attain a fair and indiscriminating society. The demand for expert psychometricians is gradually growing both for the sake of economic and scientific growth. Both the growth of modern science and economic welfare are highly dependent on understanding individuals’ particulars. Answering this universal call, Bangladesh Psychometric Society aims to provide our society an extensive psychometric pool. With the collaboration of researchers, professionals, and policymakers, we intend to attain equality, equity and justice. We intend to attain these goals of ours by-
- Providing highly skilled psychometrician to society by our rigorous training program
- Promoting the highest quality psychological testing in the industry, civil and military services, and mental health services in Bangladesh
- Promoting psychometric education and research
- Advancing and representing the profession of psychometrics
- Serving the professional needs of its membership
