Kell, Harrison J.; Martin-Raugh, Michelle P.; Carney, Lauren M.; Inglese, Patricia A.; Chen, Lei; Feng, Gary – ETS Research Report Series, 2017
Behaviorally anchored rating scales (BARS) are an essential component of structured interviews.

Welsh, D. Kent – 1979
Since imagery is a unidimensional variable, all measures of imagery, both questionnaires and behavioral, should be correlated; this, however, has not been supported by earlier research. Therefore, a new questionnaire on mental imagery--the Differential Imagery Questionnaire (DIQ)--was developed which taps four types of imagery: word imagery (WI);…

A simple modification of the Darlington-Bishop method (algebraically and conceptually similar to ridge regression, but…
