For an example, my IQ tests have varied by 20 points, depending upon when I took each test. My lowest score was in the evening when I was tired from taking care of my two toddlers during the day.

You're welcome, Rose. You have a good night, too. :-)

Absolute continuity typically refers to the consistency of the average score on a given trait over time, while differential continuity refers to the stability of individual differences in scores.
