A Monte Carlo Study of the Sampling Distribution of the Congruence Coefficient.

Broodbooks, Wendy J.; Elmore, Patricia B.

Educational and Psychological Measurement, v47 n1 p1-11 Spr 1987

The effects of sample size, number of variables, and population value of the congruence coefficient on the sampling distribution of the congruence coefficient were examined. Sample data were generated on the basis of the common factor model, and principal axes factor analyses were performed. (Author/LMO)
