Factorial Validity of Item Classification on the Boehm Test of Basic Concepts (BTBC), Forms A and B.

Piersel, Wayne C.; Reynolds, Cecil R.

Educational and Psychological Measurement, v41 n2 p579-83 Sum 1981

Boehm's classification of test items on the Boehm Test of Basic Concepts (BTBC) was examined from a factor analytic perspective. A single, general factor related to the acquisition of basic verbal concepts best described the instrument. This factor was constant across the two forms of the BTBC. (Author/GK)
