Response Criteria in Concept Development Research
Brainerd, Charles J.
Child Development, 48, 2, 360-367, Jun 77
This paper presents a psychometric analysis of the criterion problem in neo-Piagetian concept development research. The evidence shows that false negative and false positive criterion errors have the same effect on the null hypothesis so that the criterion with the lowest error rate should be utilized.
