In general, _______ could be expected to be higher than _______, because more factors contribute to measurement error in the latter.
A) alternate form correlations; internal consistency estimates
B) test-retest reliability estimates; alternate forms correlations
C) test-retest reliability estimates; internal consistency estimates
D) internal consistency estimates; alternate form correlations
