תקציר	Multi-group generalizability theory (MG G-theory) extends classical generalizability theory to estimate and compare variance components — attributable to persons, items, raters, occasions, and their interactions — simultaneously across two or more defined groups. It reveals whether a measurement procedure is equally reliable and generalizable for every group studied, supporting fair and equitable score interpretation.	The multi-group Rasch model fits the one-parameter logistic item response model simultaneously across two or more distinct groups, testing whether item difficulty parameters are invariant across groups. It is the primary psychometric tool for establishing that a scale measures the same latent trait with the same metric in each group, a prerequisite for meaningful score comparisons.
