1. Reliability

1.1. " A test (or any measuring instrument) is reliable if it consistently yields the same, or nearly the same,ranks over repeated administrations during which we would not expect the trait being measured to have changed." (Kubiszyn 341)

1.1.1. Establish checkpoints

1.1.2. Acquire team resources for stage

1.1.3. Conduct stage kick-off meeting

1.2. "If there are two equivalent forms of a test, these forms can be used to obtain an estimate of the reliability of the scores from the test." (Kubiszyn 343)

1.2.1. Determine Frequency of Meetings

1.2.2. Schedule Meetings

1.2.3. Brief Project Board

1.2.4. Prepare Meetings

1.2.5. Conduct Meetings

1.2.6. Follow-up Meeting

1.3. "Internal consistency estimates of reliability fall into two general categories: split-half or odd–even estimates and item–total correlations, such as the Kuder –Richardson (KR) proce- dure. These estimates should be used only when the test measures a single or unitary trait." (Kubiszyn 349) Kubiszyn, Tom. Educational Testing and Measurement: Classroom Application and Practice, 9th Edition. John Wiley & Sons, 102009. <vbk:9780470571880#page(349)>.
