Bedeian, Arthur G.; Day, David V.; Kelloway, E. Kevin – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 1997
Methods by which structural models correct for the effects of attenuation due to measurement error are reviewed, and implications of such disattenuation for interpreting the results of structural equation models are considered. Recommendations are made for improving the practice of disattenuation, and caution is urged in drawing inferences based…

Jones, W. Paul – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 1991
A Bayesian alternative to interpretations based on classical reliability theory is presented. Procedures are detailed for calculation of a posterior score and credible interval with joint consideration of item sample and occasion error. (Author/SLD)
