Abstract
The present paper describes two related methods of evaluating items for purposes of test construction intended to yield measures of Q‐factor isolates. The principle procedure is based on the use of correlations between the items and the Q‐factor loadings. Empirical studies are cited demonstrating the internal consistency and factorial stability of the constructed tests. Evidence of ‘qualitative similarity’ between the tests and their Q‐factor equivalents is also provided.Keywords
