LOCAL VALIDITY STUDIES
TYPES OF VALIDITY
FACE VALIDITY
CONTENT VALIDTY
CRITERION-RELATED VALIDITY
CONSTRUCT VALIDITY
relates more to what a test appears to measure than to what the test actually measures.
FACE VALIDITY
a method of gauging agreement among raters or judges regarding how essential a particular item is (essential, useful but not essential, not necessary)
CONTENT VALIDITY RATIO
the standard against which a test or a test score is evaluated.
CRITERION
an index of the degree to which a test score is related to some criterion measure obtained at the same time.
CONCURRENT VALIDITY
TEST → IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE CRITERION
CONCURRENT VALIDITY
is a judgement about the appropriateness of inferences drawn from test scores regarding individual standing on a variable.
CONSTRUCT VALIDITY
measuring the same construct.
HOMOGENEITY
there should be positive relationships
between 2 scales (ex: depression scale
and hopelessness scale)
CONVERGENCE EVIDENCE
no positive relationship between 2 scales
DISCRIMINATIVE EVIDENCE
