INTRODUCTION
Advantages of questionnaire
Less expensive
Offers greater anonymity
Disadvantages
Application is limited
Response rate is low
Opportunities to clarify issues is lacking

Summary of Validity
CONTENT
CRITERION
CONSTRUCT
CONCURREN
T
PREDICTIVE
Whether the
test covers a
representative
sample of the
domains to be
measured
The ability of
the test to
estimate
present
performance
The ability of
the test to
predict future
performance
The extent to
which the
instrument
measures a
theoretical
construct
How it is
Ask experts to
accomplishe assess the
d
test to
establish that
the items are
representative
of the
outcome
Correlate
performance
on the test
with a
concurrent
behaviour
Correlate
performance
on the test
with a
behaviour in
future
Correlate
performance
on the
instrument
with a
performance
on an
established
instrument

CONTENT VALIDITY
Two phases
Experts: Enhancement of
content of questionnaire
(Seven or more experts)
Researcher: Conceptualization
and domain analysis(finding
common and variable parts)

Reliability measured in
aspects of:
Test-Retest reliability
(for stability)
Disadvantages
Statistical calculation
JASKARAN SINGH
Correlation coefficient
Strength of
relationship
Strong
Moderate
None to weak
JASKARAN SINGH
Formula: r = (x-x)(y-y)
(x-x)2 (y-y)2
R = 2r/1+r
(r = coefficient of split half, R =
coefficient of entire test)
JASKARAN SINGH
Inter-rater reliability
(Equivalence)
R=
Number of agreements
Number of agreements + Number of disagreements

Summary of Reliability
TEST
RETEST
What it
measures
Stability over
time
How it is
Administer
accomplishe the same test
d
to the same
people at two
different
times
SPLIT HALF
INTERRATER
Equivalency of
items
Agreement
between raters
Correlate
performance for
a group of
people on two
equivalent
halves of same
test
Have multiple
researchers
measure same
instrument and
determine
percentage of
agreement
between them
