Ch.4 Measurement Validity
Cards in this deck (10)
- 1measurement construct validityconcerned with the validity of the measure with respect to the theoretical construct of interest
- 2face validitybased on superficial impressions regarding the extent that a measure appears to capture a construct
- 3content validityextent that the measure adequately represent the complete range or breath of the construct under consideration
- 4criterion validityconcerned with the extent that a measure is related, or explaions, a target outcome or criterion, usually a bx
- 5concurrent validitythe extent that a measure is related to, or explains, a relevant criterion bx, with both variables, assessed at the same occasion
- 6predictive validitythe extent that a measure is related to, or explains, a relevant criterion bx assessed at a subsequent occasion
- 7convergent validitythe extent that measures of constructs that are theoretically related are actually related
- 8discriminant validitythe extent that measures of constructs that are theoretically unrelated are actually unrelated
- 9multitrait-multimethod matric (MTMMM)multiple measures are used to assess the extent of association of theoretically related but different constructs, over and above the association that might come about simply from having shared the same method of measurement
