Abstract

“Reliability theory” is reinterpreted as a theory regarding the adequac with which one can generalize from one observation to a universe of observations. If the observation is randomly sampled from the universe—whether or not the universe consists of equivalent observations—the intraclass correlation provides an approximate lower bound to the expected value of the desired coefficient of generalizability.

“Some statistical procedures for estimating reliability are: simple percent agreement, Scott's (1955) coefficient, a correlation coefficient, or variations of intraclass correlations, such as those proposed by Ebel (1951) or Cronbach et al.”

“G-coefficients for particular universes are conceptualized as reliability indexes for randomly parallel measures as indexed by estimates of the average reliability of scores within those universes (Brennan, 2001; Cronbach et al., 1963).”

“Interestingly, it has been argued that classical test theory (CTT) or generalizability theory (GT; Cronbach et al., 1963) treats items in a study as random and, as a consequence, allows the inference to a larger set of items in a population of items (see also Nunnally & Bernstein, 1994; Markus &…”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
