The Criterion-Referenced Reliability of a Single Score. Report 76-01.

Livingston, Samuel A.

A distinction is made between reliability of measurement and reliability of classification; the "criterion-referenced reliability coefficient" describes the former. Application of this coefficient to the probability distribution of possible scores for a single student yields a meaningful way to describe the reliability of a single score. (Author)
