Asia and Rasch
Asia is rushing into hard science research Time magazine story, but seems to have overlooked soft science: psychology, sociology, etc. But it is advances in soft science that they need in order to solve the huge societal problems they are experiencing, and that are likely to become worse as populations grow and the migration to the cities continues.
Only two of the 30+ enrolled in my current online Rasch Course give Asian countries as their addresses. Yet Rasch measurement is a powerful tool in the advance of soft science because it demands that you know what you are doing. Books on Rasch have already been published in Korean and Chinese. Please email me links to where those Rasch books (or any in non-English languages) can be obtained so that I can announce them on this website.
