Predictive Validity of the Graduate Record Examination and the Miller Analogies Tests

Abstract

For a sample of 63 graduate students, 33 of whom did complete and 30 of whom did not complete a doctoral program in Educational Administration at the State University of New York at Albany, statistically nonsignificant point biserial coefficients of 0.140 and 0.087 were determined respectively for the total scores on the aptitude portion of the Graduate Records Examination and scores on the Miller Analogies Test relative to the dichotomous criterion of completion or lack of completion.
