Methodology Review: Statistical Approaches for Assessing Measurement Bias.

Millsap, Roger E.; Everson, Howard T.

Applied Psychological Measurement, v17 n4 p297-334 Dec 1993

This review employs a conceptual framework that distinguishes methods of detecting measurement bias based on either observed or unobserved conditional invariance models. The primary interest is in group-level measurement bias. Methods for bias detection in both continuous and ordered-categorical measures are reviewed, as are methods for testlets and multiple measures. (SLD)
