Evaluating the Performance of the Uncorrected and Corrected Reliability Alpha for Range Restriction and the Confidence Intervals in a Single and Meta-Analytic Study
DownloadSpring 2013
Range restriction has long been a methodological problem in educational and psychological research (Hunter & Schmidt, 2004), and this usually leads to a downward-biased estimate of a statistic. Even though much research has examined the performance of Pearson’s correlation under range restriction...

Evaluation of Frailty Assessment Tools and their Measurement Properties in Chronic Kidney Disease
DownloadSpring 2022
Background: Frailty is three to seven times more common in people with chronic kidney disease (CKD) than in those with normal kidney function. Although frailty and its impact in CKD is well-recognized, the measurement properties of the tools used to assess this syndrome are not known. The aim of...
