Abstract
Several recently published articles imply that slope and difference sc ores may be unreliable. We present data from a mental rotation experim ent that demonstrate high test-retest reliabilities for slope scores. We develop a formula that may be used to estimate intersession reliabi lities for slope scores and discuss practical steps to ensure that hig h reliabilities may be obtained.
