Table A.51. Differences between Time 1 and Time 2 EQ 360 2.0 Standard Scores
The following table summarizes the differences between time 1 and time 2 scores for the EQ 360 2.0 Total EI score, composite scales, and subscales. The first set of results (% of Respondents) lists the percentage of respondents whose scores decreased by more than 15 points, changed by 15 points or less, or increased by more than 15 points over time. Test-retest stability is supported if the majority of respondents show changes of 15 points or less over time, as found in the EQ 360 2.0. The mean and standard deviation of these differences across participants is also provided, along with the 95% confidence interval (CI), which illustrates whether the difference is statistically meaningful for the sample as a whole. That is, if the CI includes zero between the lower bound (LB) and upper bound (UB), as found for the majority of EQ 360 2.0 scales, the difference is not statistically meaningful.
