Preferred term

generalizability theory  

Definition

  • Generalizability theory (G theory), originally developed by Lee J. Cronbach and his associates, is a measurement theory that provides both a conceptual framework and a set of statistical procedures for a comprehensive analysis of test reliability. Building on and extending classical test theory (CTT) and analysis of variance (ANOVA), G theory provides a flexible approach to modeling measurement error for different measurement conditions and types of decisions made based on test results.
