A Computer Program for Item Selection Based on Maximum Internal Consistency
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Serlin, Ronald C.; Kaiser, Henry F. – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 1976
Internal consistency as one rationale for item selection from the unverse of possible test items is discussed and formulae are presented which relate the maximum internal consistency of a test to the largest eigenvalue of the interitem correlation matrix. A computer program to perform these calculations is presented. (Author/JKS)
