Validating the SEI-YVValidating the SEI-YV
Rigorous data verification processes were followed
Outlier response styles were eliminatedExtremely positive/negative ± 2SD from the meanThose who were more pos/neg than 98% of the norm group
Data were weighed to produce fair standardization statistics
Gender x Age category x Country2 x 4 x 4; 32 categories in all
