Random Measurement Error Does Not Bias the Treatment Effect Estimate in the Regression-Discontinuity Design. II. When an Interaction Effect Is Present.

Peer reviewed

Trochim, William M. K.; And Others – Evaluation Review, 1991

The regression-discontinuity design involving a treatment interaction effect (TIE), pretest-posttest functional form specification, and choice of point-of-estimation of the TIE are examined. Formulas for controlling the magnitude of TIE in simulations can be used for simulating the randomized experimental case where estimation is not at the…

Random Measurement Error Does Not Bias the Treatment Effect Estimate in the Regression-Discontinuity Design: I. The Case of No Interaction.

Peer reviewed

Cappelleri, Joseph C.; And Others – Evaluation Review, 1991

A conceptual approach and a set of computer simulations are presented to demonstrate that random measurement error in the pretest does not bias the estimate of the treatment effect in the regression-discontinuity design. Focus is on the case of no interaction between pretest and treatment on posttest. (SLD)

An Empirical Investigation of Equating Stability in a Single and a Double Linkage Design with Small Sample Sizes Using Angoff Model IV.

Du Bose, Pansy; Kromrey, Jeffrey D. – 1993

Empirical evidence is presented of the relative efficiency of two potential linkage plans to be used when equivalent test forms are being administered. Equating is a process by which scores on one form of a test are converted to scores on another form of the same test. A Monte Carlo study was conducted to examine equating stability and statistical…
