4
Q

for any constract,each participant has a true score

A

must reley on mesurment to find true scores, which has measurment error

a measure is realible if it has little measurement error

if it isnt measuring a thing constitly- no realibily ,= no validity

relevant when behaviour is observed or text are coded by multiple rater

16
Q

construct validity

A
  1. does contant reflect the iteam u want to measure
    a)face validity
    b)content validity
  2. how does this measure behaviour?
    c)Predictive
    d)Concurrent
  3. how does this measure relate to other measures ?
    e) Convergent
    f) Discriminant
17
Q

a) face validity

A

is it measuring what u want to measure?

18
Q

b) content validity

A

is it capturing all important parts of the iteam/concept being measured ?- is something missing

19
Q

c)predictive

A

it will predict accuratly future behaviour

20
Q

d)concurrent validity

A

able to distinguish relevent behaviour now
that has to do with concept being measured
ex:lonlines are they going to parties

21
Q

e) convergengengt validity

A

related to scores on measures of similar constructs

22
Q

f)discriminant

A

not related to what shouldt relate to
(low or zero correlation)
ex:don’t want to be measuring depression ! we want to measure loneliness!
