[SOLVED] Evaluation of Technical Quality

For this assignment, you will complete a deeper analysis of the technical quality of your selected test by focusing on the fifth element of the Code, which states that the test user will “evaluate evidence of the technical quality of the test provided by the test developer and any independent reviews.” To complete this assignment, you will draw upon the knowledge you gained in Units 3 and 4 about psychometrics in general and reliability and validity in particular. For this assignment, use the test you selected for your assignment in Unit 2. Locate and summarize a minimum of four articles related to the technical qualities of the selected test.  My selected test is the MCMI-IV Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory-IV For each article: List the APA reference for each journal article (a minimum of four). Identify if the article addresses reliability or validity. Discuss if the article addresses sources of error variance, reliability estimates, evidence of validity, or bias and fairness. Identify the specific type of reliability or validity (for example, test-retest reliability, predictive validity, et cetera). Identify the overall results of the research, including any psychometric or statistical outcome. Guidelines for Selecting the Literature Use the most current sources you can find. Do not use sources older than 8 years. (You may cite older sources if they are classics, if you want to show the chronology of something, or if you have another good reason. If you choose to use older sources, you will need to explain why.) Use current, peer-reviewed journal articles. Do not use sources without an author or a publication date. Do not use quotes; use only your own words. Please see the Academic Integrity and Plagiarism link in the resources for concerns with high content matching in papers. Evaluate whether the results support the use of your test as appropriate for your field and populations to be served. Instructions for the content of the paper are in the template located in the Resources. Write your assignment using the u05a1 Assignment Template [DOCX]. Additional Requirements Your paper should meet the following requirements: References: A minimum of four journal articles (textbooks, web pages, literature reviews, and the MMY book reviews do not count for these references). Length of paper: Evaluation must be at least five pages in length for content (not including title page, abstract, or references). Reference Joint Committee on Testing Practices. (2004).
