Evaluating the Psychometric Integrity of Instruments Used in Early Intervention Research: The Battelle Developmental Inventory.
Snyder, Patricia; And Others
Topics in Early Childhood Special Education, v13 n2 p216-32 Sum 1993
This paper describes two measurement integrity analyses conducted using data on the Battelle Developmental Inventory, obtained from a sample of 78 children with severe disabilities. Procedures used to conduct internal reliability and construct validity analyses are discussed. Researchers are urged to evaluate a test's construct validity when their sample differs from the measure's normative sample. (DB)
