A Zero-One Programming Approach to Gulliksen's Matched Random Subtests Method. Research Report 86-4.
van der Linden, Wim J.; Boekkooi-Timminga, Ellen – 1986
In order to estimate the classical coefficient of test reliability, parallel measurements are needed. H. Gulliksen's matched random subtests method, which is a graphical method for splitting a test into parallel test halves, has practical relevance because it maximizes the alpha coefficient as a lower bound of the classical test reliability…
