• Bifactor Models and Rotations: Exploring the Extent to which Multidimensional Data Yield Univocal Scale Scores (2010, background): “Finally, as argued in Sinharay and Puhan (2007), subscales often are so unreliable compared to the composite score that the composite score actually is a better predictor of an individual’s true score on a subscale than is the subscale score.”
• Reporting of Subscores Using Multidimensional Item Response Theory (2010, background): “Sinharay, Haberman and Puhan (2007) discussed the strategy in terms of reasonableness and in terms of compliance with professional standards.”
