Time validity - 2Describe the internal validity for Busshigh as used three transloators to ammend the questionnaire where necessary. He also ensured what they said reflected on what they did by seeing what age individuals got married
- 3counterargument for internal validityhowever questionnaire is an Westernised measurement tool so the Easternised samples results may not be valid due to them not being used to it.
- 4Point for population validityhigh as 37 samples were used from 33 countries located on 6 continents and 5 islands meaning we are able to generalise results to different countries
- 5population validityBuss aimed to overcome culture bias by using three native translators to adjust the questionnaire to suit the cultural norms.
- 6Counterargument for internal validityHowever not all of the samples may be representative of the country and more Westernised samples were used, Easternised samples were generally smalled e.g. Iran 55
- 7time validitydone in 1989 and not repeated therefore lacks it meaning results cannot be generalised to different time eras. however if it is evolution results should not change
- 8Time validityalthough research has shown an increase in contraception use, suggesting we don't have sex purely to have a baby therefore completely contradicting the study.
- 9internal reliabilityindependent measures, so only carried out on the same participants once therefore lacking IR this means can't see if results are consistent therefore predictions may not be reliable
- 10counterargument internal reliabilityhowever, Buss used split-half method and was able to compare the two finding similar results increasing the internal reliability and therefore the reliability of predictions
