An Improvement over Guttman Scalogram Analysis: A Computer Program for Evaluating Cumulative, Nonparametric Scales of Dichotomous Items.
Cziko, Gary A.
Educational and Psychological Measurement, v44 n1 p159-63 Spr 1984
Some problems associated with the criteria of reproducibility and scalability as they are used in Guttman scalogram analysis to evaluate cumulative, nonparametric scales of dichotomous items are discussed. A computer program is presented which analyzes response patterns elicited by dichotomous scales designed to be cumulative. (Author/DWH)
