A Validity Investigation of the Achievement Anxiety Test.
Plake, Barbara S.; And Others
Educational and Psychological Measurement, v41 n4 p1215-22 Win 1981
The concurrent and predictive validity of the Achievement Anxiety Test (AAT) were investigated. The evidence gives cause to be concerned about the quality of a difference score because of the nonindependence of the two scores. Further, the underlying structure of the instrument appears to be more complex than originally hypothesized. (Author/GK)
