Broadly speaking I am a measurement
theorist, statistician, and applied mathematician. My
research has branched to many areas in statistics,
mathematical science of measurement, psychometric, and
scientific methodology.
As is evident from my publications, my program of research
has elements of working at the foundations of my discipline,
including philosophy of science, scientific methodology, and
the intersection of measurement and statistical science.
I take a problem-solving point of view for my research in
that the research is not tied to any area of statistics or
measurement and I learn new things (e.g., new developments
in mathematical analysis) as necessary to solve a new
scientific problem.
Over the last 30 years my interdisciplinary
program of research has emerged to have broad
interdisciplinary impact and as such is well-recognized in a
variety of disciplines including psychology, applied social
science research (quality of life and well being),
assessment, educational research, language testing, health
and human development.
The applied work, in the end, feeds by basic program of
research in research methodology and measurement. My
scholarly life is driven by an immense curiosity and desire
to learn, as well as a great deal of energy and commitment
to learning, knowledge translation and dissemination.

Honorsand Awards
In June 2020, after UBC
nomination in the fall of 2019, Professor Zumbo was appointed
by the national tri-agency Canada Research Chairs Program as
the Tier
I Canada Research Chair in Psychometrics and Measurementat the University of British Columbia. The CRC appointment
is for 7 years, 2020-2027, for a value of $2.8-million,
renewal once. He is the first ECPS Canada Research Chair in
the history of the Department of ECPS.
In April 2020, Professor Zumbo
was re-appointed until 2024 as the Paragon UBC
Professorship in Psychometrics and Measurement in
support of the UBC-Paragon research initiative. He leads a
$1.5-million investment over the 4 years to establish the “UBC-Paragon
Living Lab” whose aim is to foster psychometric and
statistical research for faculty members, post-doctoral
fellows, and graduate students between the parties allowing
them to engage with learners in direct experience in order to
develop skills, increase knowledge, and build the capacity to
contribute to the research and development community. In so
doing, this initiative aims to enhance UBC’s standing as a
global leader in research and graduate student training in the
field of the statistical science of measurement.
In 2019, Professor Zumbo was
awarded the Centenary Medal of Distinction, from the
UBC School of Nursing. As noted in the award letter by the
School’s Director, Professor Elizabeth Saewyc, the centenary
medal of distinction recognizes having ”brought high honour to
the School … [having] significantly advanced the School’s
vision, mission and mandate.” This award reflects nearly 25
years of collaborative psychometric and statistical research
with professors of nursing, and having significantly
contributed to the training of advanced nursing and health
researchers.
In 2018 Professor Zumbo was
honored with the distinction Pioneer in Quality of Life
Research by the International Society for Quality of
Life Studies (ISQOLS) for having made substantial
contributions to measurement and research methodology
impacting on the field of Quality of Life Research. The ISQOLS
Pioneers distinction is designed to honor exemplars of
research and service to the field of quality of life. By
honoring pioneers of research, ISQOLS hopes to inspire future
quality of life researchers who may learn from the myriad
career pathways modelled by our “pioneers” and trailblazers.
In January 2017, Professor Zumbo
was named a Distinguished University Scholar. This
prestigious distinction recognizes exceptional members of UBC
faculty who has distinguished themselves internationally in
research and/or teaching and learning. In 2017 ten faculty
members from across the university were named a Distinguished
University Scholar. This is an honorific that remains for the
remainder of the holder's career at UBC.
Recipient of the 2016/2017UBC Killam Research Prize, Senior Category, Arts &
Humanities. Established in 1986, the UBC Killam Research
Prizes are awarded annually to top campus researchers. Award
winners are nominated by internal and external colleagues and
adjudicated at the University level by the President’s Faculty
Research Major-Awards Committee.
Named the holder of the newly
created Paragon
UBC Professorship in Psychometrics and Measurement,
2015-2020. Selected by UBC to lead the $1.8-million
investment over the 5 years to enhance UBC’s standing as a
global leader in research and training in the field of the
statistical science of measurement.
Recipient of the 2011/2012 UBC Killam Teaching Prize.
The university wide prize is awarded annually, from the Killam
Endowment Fund, to faculty nominated by students, colleagues,
and alumni in recognition of excellence in teaching. Each
prize is accompanied by an award from the Izaak Walton and
Dorothy Killam Endowment and is awarded at the spring
graduation ceremonies.
Selected
in 2011 a Fellow of the American Educational
Research Association (AERA). Professor Zumbo is the
first University of British Columbia (UBC) professor to be
selected an AERA Fellow. As AERA notes, Fellows are selected
in recognition of their exceptional scientific or scholarly
contributions to education research and substantial research
accomplishments. AERA Fellows are known both nationally and
internationally for their outstanding contributions to
education research. Through the Fellows Program, the
Association aims to convey its commitment to excellence in
research and to underscore to new scholars the importance of
sustained research contributions in the field.
Recipient
of the 2010 Research Fellow Award by the International
Society for Quality of Life Studies, ISQOLS. Professor
Bruno Zumbo is one of just three scholars in the world who
has received recognition as a 2010 Research Fellow of
ISQOLS. Election to the status of Research Fellow is an
indication of a scholar making a substantial contribution to
quality of life (QoL) research. ISQOLS is an international
society whose purpose is to promote and encourage research
in the field of QoL studies within and across disciplines
(e.g., education, measurement, psychology, economics,
political science, marketing, health care).
Recipient
of the 2005 Samuel J. Messick Memorial Lecture Award.
The award is given in honor of the late Samuel J. Messick, a
distinguished research scientist at Educational Testing
Service. This award supports the delivery, at the joint
annual meeting of the International Language Testing
Association (ILTA) and the Language Testing Research
Colloquium (LTRC), of a major address on a topic of great
potential relevance to the improvement of foreign or second
language testing practices. The award is administered
at ETS and includes their contribution of $1,000 USD for the
recipient. Past recipients include Eva Baker (UCLA),
Patricia Broadfoot (University
of Bristol),
and Geoffrey Masters (Australian Council for Educational
Research).
1998
Recipient of the University
of Northern
British Columbia
university-wide Excellence in Teaching Award. Awarded at the
1998 Convocation ceremonies.
