A Critical Examination of the "Reliability" and "Abnormality" Approaches to the Evaluation of Subtest Score Differences.
Cahan, Sorel
Educational and Psychological Measurement, v49 n4 p807-14 Win 1989
Statistical significance and "abnormality" have been used as criteria for the evaluation of intra-individual subtest score differences. Shortcomings of these criteria are identified, and improved estimates of the true score differences are suggested. The applicability of the abnormality criterion to these improved estimates is reviewed. (SLD)
