A Latent-Variable Modeling Approach to Assessing Interrater Reliability, Topic Generalizability, and Validity of a Content Assessment Scoring Rubric.
Abedi, Jamal; Baker, Eva L.
Educational and Psychological Measurement, v55 n5 p701-15 Oct 1995
Results from a performance assessment in which 68 high school students wrote essays support the use of latent variable modeling for estimating reliability, concurrent validity, and generalizability of a scoring rubric. The latent variable modeling approach overcomes the limitations of certain conventional statistical techniques in handling multiple criteria. (SLD)
