Structural Analysis of Correlated Factors: Lessons from the Verbal-Performance Dichotomy of the Wechsler Scales.
Macmann, Gregg M.; Barnett, David W.
School Psychology Quarterly, v9 n3 p161-97 Fall 1994
Describes exploratory and confirmatory analyses of verbal-performance procedures to illustrate concepts and procedures for analysis of correlated factors. Argues that, based on convergent and discriminant validity criteria, factors should have higher correlations with variables that they purport to measure than with other variables. Discusses implications for research and practice. (CRR)
