| Abstract |
Assessing significant change (or reliable change) in a person often involve comparing the responses of that person in two administrations of a test or scale. Several procedures have been proposed to determine if a difference between two observed scores is statistically significant or rather is within the range of mere random fluctuations due to measurement error. Application of those procedures involve some knowledge of the test properties. But sometimes those procedures cannot be employed because the properties are unknown or are not trustworthy. In this paper we propose the bootstrap of items procedure to create confidence intervals of the individual's scores without using any known psychometric properties of the test. Six databases containing the responses of several groups to one or more subscales have been analyzed using two methods: bootstrap of items and a classical procedure based on confidence intervals to estimate the true score. The rates of significant change obtained were very similar, suggesting that item bootstrapping is a promising solution when other methods cannot be applied. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 13 March 2018.
All research outputs
#18,587,406
of 23,023,224 outputs
Outputs from Frontiers in Psychology
#22,495
of 30,282 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#259,325
of 333,587 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Frontiers in Psychology
#519
of 577 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,023,224 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 30,282 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 12.5. This one is in the 19th percentile – i.e., 19% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 333,587 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 577 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 2nd percentile – i.e., 2% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
