Confirmatory Factor Analysis of the Gibb Experimental Test of Testwiseness.
Harmon, Michelle G.; And Others
Educational and Psychological Measurement, v56 n2 p276-86 Apr 1996
The stability of a 2-factor model proposed for the Gibb Experimental Test of Testwiseness was studied with 173 undergraduates. Confirmatory factor analysis results indicate that data fit the two-factor model and a simpler one-factor model. The Gibb test could be characterized as tapping a general testwiseness proficiency.
