Policy capturing is a widely used technique, but the temporal stability of policy-capturing judgments has long been a cause for concern. This article emphasizes the importance of reporting reliability, and in particular test-retest reliability, estimates in policy-capturing studies. We found that only 164 of 955 policy-capturing studies (i.e., 17.17%) reported a test-retest reliability estimate. We then conducted a reliability generalization meta-analysis on policy-capturing studies that did report test-retest reliability estimates—and we obtained an average reliability estimate of .78. We additionally examined 16 potential methodological and substantive antecedents to test-retest reliability (equivalent to moderators in validity generalization studies). We found that test-retest reliability was robust to variation in 14 of the 16 factors examined but that reliability was higher in paper-and-pencil studies than in web-based studies and was higher for behavioral intention judgments than for other (e.g., attitudinal and perceptual) judgments. We provide an agenda for future research. Finally, we provide several best-practice recommendations for researchers (and journal reviewers) with regard to (a) reporting test-retest reliability, (b) designing policy-capturing studies for appropriate reportage, and (c) properly interpreting test-retest reliability in policy-capturing studies.

策略捕获是一种广泛使用的技术，但是策略捕获判断的时间稳定性长期以来一直引起人们的关注。本文强调了在策略捕获研究中报告可靠性，尤其是重测可靠性的重要性。我们发现955个策略捕获研究中只有164个（即17.17％）报告了重测信度估计值。然后，我们对捕获政策的研究进行了可靠性概括性荟萃分析，该研究报告了重测可靠性估计值，而我们得出的平均可靠性估计值为0.78。我们还检查了16种潜在的方法学和实质性先例，以进行重测信度（等同于有效性概括研究中的主持人）。我们发现，重测信度对16个因素中的14个具有较强的变异性，但纸笔研究的信度比网络研究的信度高，行为意向判断的信度比其他信度（例如态度）要高。和感性）的判断。我们提供了未来研究的议程。最后，我们为研究人员（和期刊审稿人）提供以下几项最佳实践建议：（a）报告重测信度，（b）为适当的报道设计政策捕捉研究，以及（c）正确解释重测信度在政策捕捉研究中。我们提供了未来研究的议程。最后，我们为研究人员（和期刊审稿人）提供以下几项最佳实践建议：（a）报告重测信度，（b）为适当的报道设计政策捕捉研究，以及（c）正确解释重测信度在政策捕捉研究中。我们提供了未来研究的议程。最后，我们为研究人员（和期刊审稿人）提供以下几项最佳实践建议：（a）报告重测信度，（b）为适当的报道设计政策捕捉研究，以及（c）正确解释重测信度在政策捕捉研究中。
