Kingma, Johannes; TenVergert, Elisabeth M. – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 1987
Two studies investigated the functional equivalence of three different scoring systems used to assess the child's ability to understand and carry out multiplicative classification tasks. All three scoring criteria produced reliable and homogeneous tests. Their factor matrices were similar, and the corresponding factor structures were invariant…

When presented with a collection of objects that could be categorized by shape (balls vs. blocks) or material (soft vs.…
