Charter, Richard A.; Feldt, Leonard S. – Measurement and Evaluation in Counseling and Development, 2002
Presented is a detailed description of two true score confidence interval approaches, their use, interpretation, and a philosophical conflict that arises in many applied instances. (Contains 27 references.) (Author)

Winne, Philip H.; Belfry, M. Joan – Journal of Educational Measurement, 1982
This review of issues about correcting for attenuation concludes that the basic difficulty lies in being able to identify and equate sources of variance in estimates of validity and reliability. Recommendations are proposed for cautious use of correction for attenuation. (Author/CM)

Rogosa, David R.; Willett, John B. – Journal of Educational Measurement, 1983
Demonstrating good reliability for the difference score in measurement, the results of this study indicate that the difference score is often highly reliable when the correlation between true change and true initial status is nonnegative. In general, when individual differences in true change are appreciable, the difference score shows strong…

Brennan, Robert L. – 1977
Rules, procedures, and algorithms intended to aid researchers and practitioners in the application of generalizability theory to a broad range of measurement problems are presented. Two examples of measurement research are G studies, which examine the dependability of some general measurement procedure; and D studies, which provide the data for…

Stroud, T. W. F. – 1973
In a multiple (or multivariate) regression model where the predictors are subject to errors of measurement with a known variance-covariance structure, two-sample hypotheses are formulated for (i) equality of regressions on true scores and (ii) equality of residual variance (or covariance matrices) after regression on true scores. The hypotheses…

Takalkar, Pradnya; And Others – 1993
This study compared 4,594 student responses from three different surveys of incoming students at the University of South Florida (USF) with data from Florida's State University System (SUS) admissions files to determine what proportion of error occurs in the survey responses. Specifically, the study investigated the amount of measurement error in…
