Creighton, Theodore B.; Coleman, Donald G.; Adams, R. C. – 1997
A continuing and vexing problem associated with survey instrument development is the creation of items, initially, that correlate favorably a posteriori with constructs being measured. This study tests the use of symbolic-logic matrices developed by D. G. Coleman (1979) in creating factorially "pure" statistically discrete constructs in…

Peak, Laurie; Brown, James M. – 1980
Research was conducted that initially focused on identifying and synthesizing the large number of previously identified vocational special needs teacher competencies into an educational model. The model contained a matrix that organized all these competencies into twelve domains of four performance phases each. The Competency Matrix was the…
