Psychometric Characteristics of Scores on a Patient Management Problem Test.
Grosse, Martin E.; Wright, Benjamin D.
Educational and Psychological Measurement, v48 n2 p297-305 Sum 1988
Psychometric characteristics of the test scores of 5,663 examinees on six patient management problem tests were studied. The total scores can be divided into subscores based on all options keyed "select" and "omit." Component scores are generally correlated negatively, as reflected in reduced discrimination indices and reliability. (TJH)
