THROMBOCYTOPEN: A CONFIRMATORY REPORT

Thrombocytopen: a Confirmatory Report.

Ever since the announcement by Troland and Lee (1) in 1938 of a platelet-reducing substance in the spleens of patients with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, numerous efforts have been made to confirm their findings. Troland and Lee (2) were able to repeat their work at a later date with the same results. Their charts depicting the fall in platelets following the intravenous injection of ace...

Research Report - A Confirmatory Factor Analysis of the User Information Satisfaction Instrument

The structure and dimensionality ofthe user information satisfaction (UIS) construct is an important theoretical issue that has received considerable attention. Building upon the work of Bailey and Pearson (1983). Ives et al. (1983) conduct an exploratory factor analysis and recommend a 13-item instrument (two indicators per item) for measuring user information satisfaction. Ives et al. also co...

A Confirmatory Factor Analysis of the Children’s Report of Sleep Patterns By

Sleep is essential for learning, memory, neurobehavioral functioning, and emotion regulation. The importance of sleep in children has led to the creation of numerous sleep assessment instruments. However, there is a dearth of validated self-report measures. In an attempt to fill the gap, the Children’s Report of Sleep Patterns (CRSP) was developed for children ages 8-12. Despite its apparent st...

Confirmatory Factor Analysis

This article is the second of two on the use of confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) as a method to assess construct validity. The construct validation criteria required by the conventional MTMM approach are satisfied only by certain ideal data sets, such as those in which the method variance of measures is very low. The CFA approach to multitraitmultimethod (MTMM) data is more general, in that v...
