Evaluation of Weighted Scale Reliability and Criterion Validity: A Latent Variable Modeling Approach

Abstract A method is outlined for evaluating the reliability and criterion validity of weighted scales based on sets of unidimensional measures. The approach is developed within the framework of latent variable modeling methodology and is useful for point and interval estimation of these measurement quality coefficients in counseling and education research.
