The Role of Reliability in Criterion-Referenced Tests.
Kane, Michael T.
Journal of Educational Measurement, v23 n3 p221-24 Fall 1986
These analyses suggest that if a criterion-referenced test had a reliability (defined in terms of internal consistency) below 0.5, a simple a priori procedure would provide better estimates of students' universe scores than would individual observed scores. (Author/LMO)
