...However, controlled trials often reveal inconsistent findings as to an intervention’s effects (De Los Reyes & Kazdin, 2006, 2008, 2009; Koenig et al. 2009)....

...Specifically, as mentioned previously, controlled trials often yield inconsistent conclusions regarding the efficacy of treatments examined within these trials, particularly among multiple informants’ outcome reports (De Los Reyes & Kazdin 2006, Koenig et al. 2009)....

...…focus on examining the variance shared among multiple informants’ reports of the same behavior (e.g., Arseneault et al. 2003, Holmbeck et al. 2002, Zhou et al. 2009).1 Third, in controlled trials of treatment efficacy, researchers often select, in advance of a trial, a single outcome indicator…...

...Yet, recent work indicates that researchers in a variety of fields often may be unable to justify treating informant discrepancies as measurement error....

...Informants’ reports often disagree in their perceived levels of a behavior (“low” versus “elevated” mood), and examining multiple reports in a single study often results in inconsistent findings....
[...]
...Specifically, variations among multiple informants’ reports of the same behavior can be seen as “error” around a “true score mean” representation of the behavior being assessed (Edgeworth 1888)....

...Edgeworth (1888) translated the concept of measurement error from the physical sciences for use in the study of mental states, and it ultimately formed a key component of classical test theories of psychological measurement (Borsboom 2005)....

...Specifically, researchers may construct structural models that partition variance reflecting genetic influences on the expression of the assessed behavior, shared environmental influences, and nonshared environmental influences, in addition to variance explained by error (Bartels et al. 2007)....

...1Recently, researchers in the behavior genetics literature have tested whether unshared variance reflects important information unique to informants, rather than measurement error (Bartels et al. 2007)....
[...]
...Thus, within structural models seeking to explain variance in behavior, behavior genetics researchers may treat informant discrepancies as useful information (Baker et al. 2007, Bartels et al. 2007, Derks et al. 2006, Tackett et al. 2009)....

...At the same time, as alluded to previously, not all literatures treat unshared variance in structural equations models in this way (cf. Holmbeck et al. 2002, Valk et al. 2001)....
