Peer reviewedFeldt, Leonard S. – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 1984
The binomial error model includes form-to-form difficulty differences as error variance and leads to Ruder-Richardson formula 21 as an estimate of reliability. If the form-to-form component is removed from the estimate of error variance, the binomial model leads to KR 20 as the reliability estimate. (Author/BW)

Using three sets of real data, a comparison of four discrete discriminate analysis procedures is made using the actual versus the optimal error rate. The kernel method gives the most accurate results in all three cases. (Author/RL)
