An Extension and Application of the Multitrait-Multimethod Matrix Technique
Mellon, Phyllis M.; Crano, William D.
Journal of Educational Psychology, 69, 6, 716-23, Dec 77

Data were derived from a three year study of British elementary children to inspect the relationships among three academic traits, as assessed by standardized tests and teacher ratings. (Author/CP)
