An efficient algorithm (MSPLIT) for maximizing split-half reliability coefficients is described. Coefficients derived by the algorithm were found to be generally larger than odd-even split-half coefficients and KR-20 coefficients and were nearly as large as the largest of the coefficients from among every possible split-half arrangement.
