Hartig, Johannes; Holzel, Britta; Moosbrugger, Helfried – Multivariate Behavioral Research, 2007
Numerous studies have shown increasing item reliabilities as an effect of the item position in personality scales. Traditionally, these context effects are analyzed based on item-total correlations. This approach neglects that trends in item reliabilities can be caused either by an increase in true score variance or by a decrease in error…

Whittaker, Tiffany A.; Stapleton, Laura M. – Multivariate Behavioral Research, 2006
Cudeck and Browne (1983) proposed using cross-validation as a model selection technique in structural equation modeling. The purpose of this study is to examine the performance of eight cross-validation indices under conditions not yet examined in the relevant literature, such as nonnormality and cross-validation design. The performance of each…
