Snyder, Patricia A.; Hemmeter, Mary Louise; Fox, Lise; Bishop, Crystal Crowe; Miller, M. David – Grantee Submission, 2013
Fidelity assessment has received renewed attention in recent years, particularly as distinctions have been made in implementation science between intervention fidelity and implementation fidelity. Considering both types of fidelity has been recommended when developing fidelity instruments. In the present article, we describe development of the…

A Latent-Variable Modeling Approach to Assessing Interrater Reliability, Topic Generalizability, and Validity of a Content Assessment Scoring Rubric.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Abedi, Jamal; Baker, Eva L. – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 1995
Results from a performance assessment in which 68 high school students wrote essays support the use of latent variable modeling for estimating reliability, concurrent validity, and generalizability of a scoring rubric. The latent variable modeling approach overcomes the limitations of certain conventional statistical techniques in handling…
