Hello,
Does anyone know of any software that conducts reliability analyses using
the generalizability approach of Cronbach et al?

Ellen,
It amazes me to read the self-righteous judgements of people on this

Horst,
Get your shit together, What do you think about the polarization effect in

No. I do not look at every possible model.

Yes, we do this so that we will have examples of all combinations of x1 and
x2,as we would do when using a factorial anova design. But such uniform
sampling does not make the variables into causes, Addin

Gus,
You are making a defense of studying distributions as they are thrown at us
by nature/circumstances, This seem the way to go to social scientists
because we tend to believe that our causes are embedded in all sorts of
complex interactions and can not be isolated from their context, If we l
Jerry,
You are correct that the same data set can support a number of SEM models.
This is not the case with corresponding correlations/regressions, however,
CR discloses THE causal model for a given set of data, To debate whether or
not this disclosure is provable or not when we model phenomena
