Abstract

ABSTRACT Intensive longitudinal data is increasingly used to study state-like processes such as changes in daily stress. Measures aimed at collecting such data require the same level of scrutiny regarding scale reliability as traditional questionnaires. The most prevalent methods used to assess reliability of intensive longitudinal measures are based on the generalizability theory or a multilevel factor analytic approach. However, the application of recent improvements made for the factor analytic approach may not be readily applicable for all researchers. Therefore, this article illustrates a five-step approach for determining reliability of daily data, which is one type of intensive longitudinal data. First, we show how the proposed reliability equations are applied. Next, we illustrate how these equations are used as part of our five-step approach with empirical data, originating from a study investigating changes in daily stress of secondary school teachers. The results are a within-level (ωw), between-level (ωb) reliability score. Mplus syntax for these examples is included and discussed. As such, this paper anticipates on the need for comprehensive guides for the analysis of daily data.

确定日常测量的可靠性:以教师压力数据为例
摘要密集的纵向数据越来越多地用于研究类似状态的过程,如日常压力的变化。旨在收集此类数据的措施需要对量表可靠性进行与传统问卷相同程度的审查。用于评估密集纵向测量可靠性的最常用方法是基于可推广性理论或多层次因素分析方法。然而,最近对因子分析方法的改进可能并不适用于所有研究人员。因此,本文阐述了一种确定日常数据可靠性的五步方法,这是一种密集的纵向数据。首先,我们展示了所提出的可靠性方程是如何应用的。接下来,我们用实证数据说明了这些方程是如何作为我们五步方法的一部分使用的,这些数据来源于一项调查中学教师日常压力变化的研究。结果是等级内(ωw)、等级间(ωb)的可靠性得分。包括并讨论了这些示例的Mplus语法。因此,本文预计需要对日常数据的分析提供全面的指南。

期刊介绍: Because interaction between the domains of research and application is critical to the evaluation and improvement of new educational measurement practices, Applied Measurement in Education" prime objective is to improve communication between academicians and practitioners. To help bridge the gap between theory and practice, articles in this journal describe original research studies, innovative strategies for solving educational measurement problems, and integrative reviews of current approaches to contemporary measurement issues. Peer Review Policy: All review papers in this journal have undergone editorial screening and peer review.
