Hi Alim:

No; it doesn't. If you see the output after running the model, eivreg will assume a perfect reliability for the interaction (1.00) if you do what you suggest below.

You need manually construct the interaction and then manually specify the reliability.

For the formula of the reliability of the x*z interaction and given:

Reliability of x = relx
Reliability of z = relz
Correlation of xz =rxz

Reliability of x*z = ((relx *relz )+rxz^2)/(1+rxz^2)

For background on this formula see:

Busemeyer, J. R. and L. E. Jones (1983). "Analysis of Multiplicative Combination Rules When the Causal Variables Are Measured with Error." Psychological Bulletin 93(3): 549-562.

HTH,
J.

it to adjust the estimate for its coefficient, or will it assume that the interaction term has reliability 1.0? anyone know the answer?
