Abstract
In this second multigroup application, our attention focuses on invariance as it relates to a single measuring instrument, the Self Description Questionnaire (SDQIII; Marsh & O’Neill, 1984). In this chapter we explore the factorial equivalency of the SDQIII across two academically tracked (low and high) groups of high school students. (For a more extensive discussion of academic tracking as it relates to this data base, see Byrne, 1988a; for details of the study related to this application, see Byrne, 1988c.)
