While rarely discussed, Preacher et al., (2005) mentions one rationale for using EGA is that by removing influences such as unreliability in the middle of the distribution the statistical power will be increased. It is thought that selecting cases from the extremes of the distribution of x may increase the reliability of a scale. What actually has been seen is that EGA usually results in the omission of the most reliable scores, not the least. Using item response theory (IRT) may help make EGA a viable option to increase reliability. Applying IRT permits the appropriate assessment of reliability in different regions of a distribution and recognition of the effects of EGA on relevant variances.
