• Evaluating correlations in studies of personality and behavior: Beyond the number of significant findings to be expected by chance (2009, methodology): “7 e.g., a person could ostensibly end up with a score of a one on each item, which is impossible when the Q-sort method is employed (see Block, 2008).”
• Child Temperament: An Integrative Review of Concepts, Research Programs, and Measures (2008, background): “This improvement is due to the aggregation principle, which states that biases of single observers tend to cancel each other out (Block, 2008).”
• The Five-Factor Framing of Personality and Beyond: Some Ruminations (2010, methodology): “…the widely and long-used Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (Costa, Busch, Zonderman, & McCrae, 1986), the popular California Psychological Inventory (McCrae, Costa, & Piedmont, 1993), and what they called the CQS, more widely known as the California Adult Q-set (CAQ) (Block, 1961, 2008).”
