title: Maximized split-half reliabilities for Harris-Lingoes subscales: a follow-up with larger Ns.
abstract: Max r reliability estimates were significantly and consistently greater than corresponding alpha estimates for Harris-Lingoes subscales of the MMPI-2 containing 13 to 21 items. As previously reported with subscales of fewer items, Max r distributions were negatively skewed. Implications of these findings were discussed.
