Putting True Scores First: A Response to Rogosa and Ghandour.

Floden, Robert E.

Journal of Educational Statistics, v16 n3 p267-80 Fall 1991

This commentary focuses on the application of D. Rogosa and G. Ghandour's work to observational research on classroom processes. Rogosa and Ghandour have shown that the short length of an observation is typically the dominant source of error. Investigators should conduct observations for as long as possible. (SLD)
