Redundancy in the California Achievement Test.
Powers, Stephen; Crowder, Christopher
Educational and Psychological Measurement, v42 n4 p1253-57 Win 1982
The factorial structure of the California Achievement Test subtests appears to consist of only one common factor in each grade. This study indicates that there is considerable overlap among the subtests and that there is minimal support for the use of subtest scores as measures of independent constructs. (Author/PN)
