Group Dependence of Some Reliability Indices for Mastery Tests.

Divgi, D. R.

Applied Psychological Measurement, v4 n2 p213-18 Spr 1980

The dependence of reliability indices for mastery tests on mean and cutoff scores was examined in the case of three decision-theoretic indices. Dependence of kappa on mean and cutoff scores was opposite to that of the proportion of correct decisions, which was linearly related to average threshold loss. (Author/BW)
