Predictive Validity of Discriminant Analysis for Genetic Data

Genetica, 2003
We examined the predictive validity of the results using discriminant analysis to distinguish statistically among two or more populations with a large sample of random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) loci, but a small sample of genotypes from each population.

Discriminant validity of the Crown–Crisp Experiential Index

British Journal of Medical Psychology, 1987
The discriminative power of the CCEI subscales was examined. Several approaches were undertaken on the responses from subjects in three neurotically disturbed groups and a normal control group. Analyses indicated that simple cut‐off points could discriminate effectively an ‘adjusted‐neurotic’ dimension; simple cut‐off points were relatively more ...

Convergent and Discriminant Validity of Overall Defensive Functioning

The Journal of Nervous & Mental Disease, 1998
We examined the validity of the construct of overall defensive functioning and its discrimination from standard diagnostic assessments. Within a multisite field trial, patients received intake diagnostic interviews by clinicians who made standard axis I through V diagnoses, then rated defense mechanisms using the Defense Mechanism Rating Scales (DMRS).

Convergent and Discriminant Validity of Firo-B Questionnaire

Psychological Reports, 1991
The Kramer-Froehle controversy about the construct validity of FIRO-B questionnaire was evaluated with a multitrait-multimethod design. 113 women and 26 men completed the FIRO-B questionnaire. After the examiner had given a lecture on the FIRO-dimensions, the subjects rated themselves on these dimensions. Only three out of six intercorrelations on the

Discriminant validity of lateral sensorimotor tests in children

Journal of Clinical and Experimental Neuropsychology, 1988
The discriminant validity of left- (LH) and right-hand (RH) sensorimotor measures from a comprehensive neuropsychological battery was tested using confirmatory factor analysis. A group of children (primarily learning disabled) was divided into analysis (n = 488) and cross-validation (n = 400) samples and the following measures were taken for both the ...

Discriminant Validity of the Inventory to Diagnose Depression

Journal of Personality Assessment, 1993
Measures of depression and anxiety correlate highly with one another. It has been hypothesized that this shared variance partly reflects poor discriminant validity, which could be improved by linking item content more closely to diagnostic criteria.

Multiple Chemical Sensitivity: Discriminant Validity of Case Definitions

Archives of Environmental Health: An International Journal, 2001
In this study, the authors used the University of Toronto's Health Survey self-administered questionnaire to determine discriminant validity of multiple chemical sensitivity definitions. The authors distributed a total of 4,126 questionnaires to adults who attended general, allergy, occupational, and environmental health practices.
