Wang, Xiaoping – 1992
This paper presents results of a LISREL factor analysis on data from the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised (WISC-R) and the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Chinese Revised (WISC-CR) (published in 1986) for children ages 6.5 to 16.5 years, using a standardization sample of 200 children (100 males and 100 females) at each of…

Peer reviewedBennett, Randy Elliot; And Others – Journal of Educational Measurement, 1991
The relationship of multiple-choice and free-response items on the College Board's Advanced Placement Computer Science Examination was studied using confirmatory factor analysis. Results with 2 samples of 1,000 high school students suggested that the most parsimonious fit was achieved using a single factor. Implications for construct validity are…

Marsh, Herbert W.; And Others – 1990
The purposes of the present investigation are to evaluate a new, adaptive procedure for assessing multiple dimensions of self-concept for children younger than 8 years and to examine related theoretical issues. The multidimensional, hierarchical structure of self-concept is well established for older children, but there is a paucity of research…

Relative fits of 3 factor-structure models of adolescent reckless behavior were examined using the 10-item Reckless Behavior Questionnaire with 1,357 college and 181 high school students. Both one- and two-factor models were found to be satisfactory representations. Implications of a study of construct validity are discussed. (SLD)
