Standard Errors Of Measurement

If an individual takes more than one MMPI the subscale scores are likely to vary. The individual giving the test may wish to identify significant changes between subscale scores. Standard errors of measurement may be beneficial in this regard. The purpose of this study was to compute the standard errors of measurement for each of the MMPI subscales. A table is also provided for individuals who wish to use these data.

Standard Errors Of Measurement

Reliability of the WAIS-R for a mixed sample of psychiatric and neurological patients was determined. Split-half reliabilities and standard errors of measurement were computed for all subtests (except Digit Span and Digit Symbol) and the Verbal, Performance, and Full Scale IQs. Only the Arithmetic subtest had a reliability estimate which was significantly lower than that of the 35—44-yr.-old standardization group. All other reliabilities and standard errors of measurement approximated those reported for the normative group. It was concluded that the WAIS-R is a reliable instrument for evaluating patients in a clinical setting.
