Optimal Identification of Mismeasured Individuals.

Drasgow, Fritz; And Others

Applied Measurement in Education, v9 n1 p47-64 1996

A general approach to the identification of individuals mismeasured by a standardized psychological test is reviewed. The method, originated by M. V. Levine and F. Drasgow (1988), has the advantage of statistical optimality. Use of optimal methods requires a psychometric model for normal responding and one for aberrant responding. (SLD)
