Multigroup Comparisons and the Assumption of Equivalent Construct Validity across Groups: Methodological and Substantive Issues.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Byrne, Barbara M. – Multivariate Behavioral Research, 1989
Construct validity findings from Campbell-Fiske and LISREL confirmatory factor analyses of a multitrait-multimethod matrix were compared for 252 low-track and 588 high-track eleventh- and twelfth-grade students. The manner in which construct validity varies across groups is also discussed. (SLD)

Marsh, Herbert W.; Byrne, Barbara M. – 1990
Self/other agreement between self-concept ratings by the individual and self-concepts inferred by significant others is of theoretical and practical importance, but the review by J. S. Shrauger and T. J. Schoeneman (1979) found no evidence for such agreement. In the present investigation, the Self Description Questionnaire III (SDQIII) was…

Byrne, Barbara M. – 1987
The construct validity of four self-concept (SC) traits (general SC, academic SC, English SC, mathematics SC), as measured by three different scales (Likert, semantic differential, Guttman) for low- (n=252) and high-track (n=588) Canadian high school students, was assessed using both the Campbell-Fiske criteria, and a comparison of hierarchically…

Four Multitrait-Multimethod Approaches to Examining the Construct Validity of Adolescent Self-Concept within and across Gender.
PDF on ERIC Download full text
Byrne, Barbara M. – 1989
The construct validity of a multidimensional adolescent self-concept was estimated separately for males and females, and the results were compared across gender. The application of four multitrait-multimethod (MTMM) approaches to estimating construct validity was demonstrated, and the scope and consistency of the findings derived from each were…
