• Validation and Standardization of the Generalized Anxiety Disorder Screener (GAD-7) in the General Population (2008, result): “Our favoring of the covariance approach is based on findings, which have shown that such analyses yields robust results, virtually identical to results obtained with IRT-based approaches.(49,50) Finally, validity testing of an instrument needs to demonstrate both convergent and discriminant validity”
• The use of personality measures in personnel selection: What does current research support? (2006, background): “Specifically, although the use of personality CATs has received attention in the research literature (MacDonald & Paunonen, 2002; Meijer & Nering, 1999) our computer search revealed only one published example of a CAT of personality (MacDonald & Paunonen, 2002).”
• Item response theory and clinical measurement. (2009, background): “The putative exchangeability of IRT and CTT trait scores has led some researchers to question the relative benefits of IRT (Barrett 2008, Fan 1998, MacDonald & Paunonen 2002).”
