q2 i? The structure of measurement models built from vaguely quantified frequency data differs from the structure of models built from numerically quantified frequency data. → Jamie Lynn Marincic 2012

Evidence¶

q2 · i? · causal · r?

An experiment embedded in the 2006 National Survey of Student Engagement compared frequency reports collected in numerically versus vaguely quantified formats. The paper reports that "the structure of measurement models based on vaguely and numerically quantified data differs"; no effect size is printed.

"Using data from an experiment embedded in the 2006 National Survey of Student Engagement, this working paper finds that the structure of measurement models based on vaguely and numerically quantified data differs"
