Using Monte Carlo methods, the applicability of large sample theory to maximum likelihood estimates of total indirect effects in sample sizes of 50, 100, 200, 400, and 800 was studied. Samples of at least 200 and 400 are required for the recursive and nonrecursive models, respectively, that were assessed. (TJH)

Implications of metanalytic results from Monte Carlo studies of the robustness of the F test in the one- and two-factor fixed effects analysis of variance (ANOVA) models and Monte Carlo results for the B. L. Welch (1947) and Kruskal-Wallis (1952) tests are discussed. (SLD)

A method is proposed for sequential evaluation of reliability of psychometric instruments. Sample size is unfixed; a test statistic is computed after each person is sampled and a decision is made in each stage of the sampling process. Results from a series of Monte-Carlo experiments establish the method's efficiency. (SLD)

Chou, Tungshan; Huberty, Carl J. – 1992
The empirical performance of the technique proposed by P. O. Johnson and J. Neyman (1936) (the JN technique) and the modification of R. F. Potthoff (1964) was studied in simulated data settings. The robustness of the two JN techniques was investigated with respect to their ability to control Type I and Type III errors. Factors manipulated in the…

Peer reviewedBrown, R. L. – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 1992
A Monte Carlo study explores the robustness assumption in structural equation modeling of using a full information normal theory generalized least-squares estimation procedure on Type I censored data. The efficacy of the following proposed alternate estimation procedures is assessed: asymptotically distribution free estimator and a latent…

Meta-analytic methods were used to summarize results of Monte Carlo (MC) studies investigating the robustness of various statistical procedures for testing within-subjects effects in split-plot repeated measures designs. Through a literature review, accessible MC studies were identified, and characteristics (simulation factors) and outcomes (rates…

Xiao, Beiling – 1990
Dichotomous search strategies (DSSs) for computerized adaptive testing are similar to golden section search strategies (GSSSs). Each middle point of successive search regions is a testing point. After each item is administered, the subject's obtained score is compared with the expected score at successive testing points. If the subject's obtained…
