Direct linkSavalei, Victoria – Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2008
Normal theory maximum likelihood (ML) is by far the most popular estimation and testing method used in structural equation modeling (SEM), and it is the default in most SEM programs. Even though this approach assumes multivariate normality of the data, its use can be justified on the grounds that it is fairly robust to the violations of the…

Download full textHill, Richard K. – 1975
This study is an a priori demonstration of the applicability of multiple matrix sampling techniques to the practical research problem of parameter estimation. Three tests were administered to two separate but parallel populations, with one receiving item samples and the other receiving full tests. Special efforts were made to minimize the context…

Peer reviewedCarlson, Jerry S.; Dillon, Ronna – Journal of Educational Measurement, 1979
The Matrices and Order of Appearance subtests of a Piagetian test battery were administered to a sample of second-grade children on two occasions under two test conditions: standardized testing and a dialogue between child and examiner. Differences for test condition and time of testing were found. (JKS)

Sauls, Judith M.; Larson, Robert C. – 1975
National data was obtained from 9-year-old, 13-year-old, 17-year-old, and 26 through 35-year-old populations in order to determine academic achievement in nine subject areas. For each age population, group data was calculated and reported by region, sex, color, parents' educational level, and size and type of community. The application of singular…

Tucker, Ledyard R.; And Others – 1986
A Monte Carlo study of five indices of dimensionality of binary items used a computer model that allowed sampling of both items and people. Five parameters were systematically varied in a factorial design: (1) number of common factors from one to five; (2) number of items, including 20, 30, 40, and 60; (3) sample sizes of 125 and 500; (4) nearly…

Ascher, Gordon – 1975
The increased use of criterion-referenced statewide testing programs is an outgrowth of the need for more diagnostic information for planning and decision making than is provided by norm-referenced programs. There remains, however, a need for state agencies to compare the results of local districts to a variety of comparison groups for the purpose…
