The Multidimensional Structure of Verbal Comprehension Test Items.

Peled, Zimra

Educational and Psychological Measurement, v44 n1 p67-83 Spr 1984

The multidimensional structure of verbal comprehension test items was investigated. Empirical evidence was provided to support the theory that item tasks are multivariate-multiordered composites of faceted components: language, contextual knowledge, and cognitive operation. Linear and circular properties of cylindrical manifestation were demonstrated. (Author/DWH)
