A formal model is presented of the statistical properties of molecular behavioral matching. The model indicates that aggregation effects should be controlled in analysis of matching and that comparison of molecular theories of matching performance affords ideographic analysis of choice behavior.

An extension is described to a product-testing model to account for misinformation among subjects that would lead them to perform incorrectly on "pick one of two" tests. The model is applied to a data set of 367 subjects picking 1 of 2 colas. Misinformation does exist. (SLD)

Goffin, Richard D.; Jackson, Douglas N. – Multivariate Behavioral Research, 1992
The way in which trait and rater variance combine in multitrait-multirater (MTMR) performance appraisal data is explored. Implications of the confirmatory factor analytic model and the composite direct product (CDP) model for MTMR data are examined. Superior fit of the CDP model for four data sets is discussed. (SLD)
