The Scaling of Paired Comparison Data with One or More Extreme Stimuli: A Comparison of Three Models
Wild, Bradford S.; Cabral, Robert M.
Educational and Psychological Measurement, 36, 3, 657-70, Aut 76

The results illustrate the inability of the Thurstone model to adequately account for data when the scale includes extreme stimuli. (Author)
