Starting from Lennart Sjöberg's serial scoring of the Color‐Word Test and his critical review test, possibilities attaining better reliability estimates are briefly surveyed. As a simple step, orthogonalization regression model is suggested. Ways maximizing estimate demonstrated. On basis 261 subjects five differing subsamples, clinical control groups, oblique system orthogonalized maximum solutions compared empirically. The significance results for test theoretic evaluation discussed.
