An Instrument to Measure Anomia.

Moore, Allen B.

Adult Education, v30 n2 p82-91 Win 1980

Four hundred and eighty-six disadvantaged adults from North Carolina were the subjects in a study that factor-analyzed three instruments designed to measure anomia, yielding a 12-item unidimensional scale. (The refined combination scale is presented as of potential usefulness for research on the effects of educational intervention on anomia.) (LRA)
