Peer reviewedPenfield, Douglas A.; Koffler, Stephen L. – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 1986
The development of a nonparametric K-sample test for equality of slopes using Puri's generalized L statistic is presented. The test is recommended when the assumptions underlying the parametric model are violated. This procedure replaces original data with either ranks (for data with heavy tails) or normal scores (for data with light tails).…

The reliability and validity of measurement is analyzed by a sampling model based on generalizability theory. A model for the relationship between a measurement procedure and an attribute is developed from an analysis of how measurements are used and interpreted in science. The model provides a basis for analyzing the concept of an error of…

Becker, Betsy Jane – 1986
This paper discusses distribution theory and power computations for four common "tests of combined significance." These tests are calculated using one-sided sample probabilities or p values from independent studies (or hypothesis tests), and provide an overall significance level for the series of results. Noncentral asymptotic sampling…

Mellenbergh, Gideon J.; Vijn, Pieter – 1980
Data are summarized in Scheuneman's Score x Group x Response frequency table in order to investigate item bias. The data can arise from two different sampling models: (1) multinomial sampling in which a fixed sample size is used and the responses are cross-classified according to score, group, and response; and (2) product-multinomial sampling in…

Cohen, Allan S., Comp. – 1979
This partially annotated bibliography of journal articles, dissertations, convention papers, research reports, and a few books and unpublished manuscripts provides a comprehensive coverage of work on latent trait theory and practice. Documents are arranged alphabetically by author. The period covered ranges from the early 1950's to the present.…

Haladyna, Tom; Roid, Gale – 1976
Three approaches to the construction of achievement tests are compared: construct, operational, and empirical. The construct approach is based upon classical test theory and measures an abstract representation of the instructional objectives. The operational approach specifies instructional intent through instructional objectives, facet design,…
