Calculating a lower bound for reliability under more general conditions than had been proposed is demonstrated. (SLD)

Zwick, Rebecca – 1995
This paper describes a study, now in progress, of new methods for representing the sampling variability of Mantel-Haenszel differential item functioning (DIF) results, based on the system for categorizing the severity of DIF that is now in place at the Educational Testing Service. The methods, which involve a Bayesian elaboration of procedures…
