Questions and Answers

What is the definition of parallel tests in psychometrics?

  • Two tests that have the same items but measure different constructs

  • What is tau-equivalence in the context of parallel tests?

  • The true scores associated with each test represent different constructs, but each test is measuring the same thing in the same way
