Abstract
Abstract A structural equation modeling approach to scale reliability evaluation can be employed to estimate generalizability theory indexes in settings where sampling of subjects and conditions is carried out. In one- and two-facet crossed designs, it is demonstrated how this method can be used to obtain estimates of relative generalizability coefficients. The described procedure is illustrated on numerical data.

It is proposed that the degree to which tests are speeded be investigated explicitly, and an indexτ is advanced to define this concept, and it is demonstrated that, for moderately speeded tests, the coefficient of equivalence can be determined approximately from single-trial data.

It is pointed out that the statement that “coefficientα is equal to the mean of the split-half reliabilities” is true only under the restricted condition assumed by Cronbach in the body of his derivation of this result.

A method of composite reliability estimation using covariance structure analysis with nonlinear constraints is outlined, demonstrating that in many cases the widely used coefficient alpha is an unsatisfactory index of scale reliability already at the population level.

90 Citations2002Tenko Raykov
An analytic approach to standard error and confidence interval estimation of scale reliability with fixed congeneric measures is proposed that is based on a generally applicable estimator stability evaluation procedure, the delta method, and can be used to evaluate precision of estimates and plausible ranges for reliability of multiple-component instruments in studied populations.
