Abstract
Twenty-five years ago, when the Psychometric Society was formed, the new developments that were then shaping the course of psychometric research were subjective scaling and factor analysis. Today, a development that seems destined to influence psychometric research in the next twenty-five years is the simulation of cognitive processes on high-speed digital computers. So far, of course, there has been more talk about the potential utility of computers in psychology than there has been accomplishment; nevertheless, what achievements have been made seem to me to imply a bright future.Keywords
