Q

Content validity

A

based on a thorough examination of all test items to determine if the items are relevant to measuring what the test purports to measure, and whether the items adequately sample the full range of the skill being measured

Q

Single Subject Design Disadvantages

A

one or few studies cannot be generalized to population, not efficient in predicting the behavior profile of groups of individuals.

Types of measurement scales present or absent Items classified into discrete categories that do not have a numerical relationship E.g. survey where respondents are asked if they never, sometimes, or always use a certain clinical practice.
Nominal
30
Types of measurement scales Same as interval but numerical values must be related to an absolute zero point Zero suggests an absence of the property being measured. E.g. measuring stuttering, 0-10
Ratio
31
Types of measurement scales Can be arranged according to rank orders or levels Numbers do not have mathematical meaning E.g. 1=strongly agree, 2=agree, 3=netral, 4=disagree, 5=strongly disagree
Ordinal
32
Types of measurement scales Numerical scale that can be arranged according to rank orders Scale of 1-10
Interval
33
External factors that affect Validity
1. Hawthorne Effect-extend to which results are affected by participants knowledge of a study 2. Multiple Treatment Interference-multiple independent variables and treatments being assessed 3. Reactive or interactive effects of pretesting-pretest sensitizing the participant to the study
34
Internal factors that affect validity: Instrumentation
-problems with measuring devices
35
Internal factors that affect validity: History
subjects life events that may be responsible for changes
36
Internal factors that affect validity: Statistical Regression
behavior that goes from an extreme high or low point to an average level
37
Internal factors that affect validity: atrition
problem of losing clients
38
Internal factors that affect validity: Maturation-
biological and other kinds of changes within the participants themselves
39
Internal factors that affect validity: testing
the change that occurs in the dependent variable simply because it has been measured more than once
40
Internal factors that affect validity: Subject Selection Bias-
subjective factors that influence the selection of who participates in the study
41
Internal factors that affect validity: Interaction of Factors
combination of factors
42
