Content - 2Face ValidityThe extent to which a study appears to measure what it aims to measure on the surface
- 3Construct ValidityDoes the rationale of the study match up to what the study investigates
- 4Concurrent ValidityHow the findings of the study reflect the level of thinking at the time
- 5Convergent validityThe level of agreement between outcome measures of the same intervention
- 6Divergent validityThe appropriate level of disagreement between the outcome of different outcome measures to the intervention studied.
- 7Content ValidityThe degree to which the intervention studied has been covered in breadth and depth.
- 8Internal ValidityThe extent to which the findings of the study are due to the independent variable, no confounding or extraneous variables
- 9external validityThe extent to which the results of the study reflect real-life
- 10Criterion ValidityThe extent to which a measure relates to the outcome.

SNNOUT- The proportion of patients who have the disease that test positive.
Rarely overlooks the thing it is looking for - 25SpecificitySpecificity= TN/(TN+FP)
SPPIN= The proportion of patients without the disease who test negatively.
Correctly rejects patients without the condition. Rarely mistakes the thing it is looking for.
