The Invariance of Anchor Points Obtained by Magnitude Estimation and Pair-Comparison Treatment of Complete Ranks Scaling Procedures: An Empirical Comparison and Implications for Validity of Measurement.
Schriesheim, Chester A.; Schriesheim, Janet F.
Educational and Psychological Measurement, v38 n4 p977-83 Win 1978
