Measuring the Reliability of Qualitative Text Analysis Data (2004, background): “A recent essay on reliability considerations (Brennan, 2001) attests to the almost exclusive reliance on correlations at the expense of agreements of interval data at the expense of other metrics, and on coding at the expense of unitizing and other data making processes.”
Generalizability Theory and Classical Test Theory (2010, methodology): “To put it another way, in IRT items (more correctly item parameters) are effectively fixed, which means that a replication would consist of identically the same items (or, more correctly, a set of items with identically the same parameters). Call this “strictly” parallel forms. The notion of randoml”
Estimating Consistency and Accuracy Indices for Multiple Classifications (2002, background): “For that reason, some researchers might prefer a model incorporating replications that are more flexible than strictly parallel forms (e.g., Brennan, 2001).”
Enhancing rigour in the Delphi technique research (2011, background): “Although commonly applied in psychometric and educational research [71,72], parallel form measures are rarely reported in Delphi studies.”
Cronbach's Alpha: Review of Limitations and Associated Recommendations (2010, background): “Alpha is a characteristic of data obtained from a particular group and not an inherent characteristic of a measure (Brennan, 2001; Dimitrov, 2002; van Prooijen & Van Der Kloot, 2001; Wilkson & APA Task Force on Statistical Inference, 1999).”
