The Factorial Validity of Scores from a Cognitively Designed Test: The Spatial Learning Ability Test.
Embretson, Susan E.
Educational and Psychological Measurement, v57 n1 p99-107 Feb 1997
Four studies of the factorial validity of the Spatial Learning Ability Test (SLAT), involving 431 undergraduates, were summarized to elaborate nomothetic span. These studies support the SLAT as a spatial processing measure. The SLAT, compared to a test with the same item type, was a more pure measure of spatial ability. (SLD)
