Question 1 of 10

1. Question
Content validity refers to…
- How well items hang together.
- The degree to which items adequately sample the universe of content associated with a construct.
- The extent to which we can generalize the results of a research study to people, settings, times, measures, and characteristics other than those used in that study.
- The extent to which a research study produces a single, unambiguous explanation for the relationship between two variables.
Correct

2. Question
What is the first step in evaluating content validity?
- Defining the construct
- Item generation
- Selecting a sample
- Setting up the survey

- Using a both a dictionary and a thesaurus
- Using academic definitions of related constructs
- Using a good and simple writing style
- All of the above
Correct

Question 4 of 10

4. Question
What is definitional correspondence?
- The degree to which a scale’s items correspond to each other.
- The degree to which a scale’s items correspond to the construct’s definition.
- The degree to which a construct’s definition corresponds to the definitions of other related constructs.
- None of the above.

Question 5 of 10

5. Question
What is the advantage of using a lay judge as opposed to an expert judge?
- Lay judges are not affected by preconceived notions about jargon.
- Lay judges are more readily available.
- Lay judges are more familiar with academic definitions.
- Both a and B.

Question 7 of 10

7. Question
What is definitional distinctiveness?
- The degree to which a scale’s items correspond more to the definitions of other orbiting constructs than to the the focal construct’s definition.
- The degree to which a scale’s items correspond to the construct’s definition.
- The degree to which a scale’s items correspond more to the focal construct’s definition than to the definitions of other orbiting constructs.
- The degree to which a scale’s items correspond to each other.
Correct

Incorrect
Question 8 of 10

8. Question
Which of the following is correct regarding the selection of an orbiting construct?
- Choose constructs that have a “part-whole” relationship with the focal construct.
- Choose constructs whose definitions are not well-understood by scholars.
- Choose constructs that utilize the same referent as the focal construct.
- Avoid constructs at the same stage of causal flow.

Question 10 of 10

10. Question
Which of the following is correct regarding HTDs?
- It’s harder to get high htds with orbiting scales that are more distinct.
- It’s easier to get high htds with orbiting scales that are more distinct.
- Htds tend to be higher for scales that contain reverse-worded items.
- Htds are lower when alphas are higher.
