Resolving Differences among Methods of Establishing Confidence Limits for Test Scores.
Glutting, Joseph J.; And Others
Educational and Psychological Measurement, v47 n3 p607-14 Fall 1987
This paper discusses the basic theory underlying confidence limits and presents reasons why psychologists should incorporate confidence ranges in their psychodiagnostic reports. Four methods for establishing confidence limits are compared. Three of the methods involve estimated true scores, and the fourth is the standard error of measurement procedure. (Author/GDC)
