Table 5.

Violation Percentages (Vp) for Natural Banding of Sum Scores.

Vp-Adj Vp-5k
Scale Uw W Uw W Stringencya
NCR 0.37 0.34 0.09 0.05
Theta 0.41 0.37 0.14 0.07 10857
D-scale 0.38 0.34 0.10 0.05 7735

Note. Vp-Adj = all adjacent 3-matrices from the full data matrix; Vp-5k = 5,000 randomly chosen 3-matrices; Uw = unweighted; W = weighted; NCR = sum score (number correct responses).

Larger values indicate more stringent bandings (Domingue, 2014).
