Continuing this post, Zak Stein said:
"The
idea that a holistic assessment could tell us about the essence of a
person is absurd and flagrantly ideological. Development assessments at
their best can only paint pictures of the differential distribution of
capabilities within persons. We can't assess people as a whole, we can
only assess their performances along particular lines in particular
contexts. And performances vary across contexts, which means that you
may perform at one level in one context and at a very different level in
another context" (11).
