multiple issues context October 2010 unreferenced October 2010 Convergent validity , is the degree to which an operation is similar to converges on other operations that it theoretically should also be similar to. For instance, to show the convergent validity of a test of mathematics skills, the scores on the test can be correlated with scores on other tests that are also designed to measure basic mathematics ability. High correlations between the test scores would be evidence of a convergent validity. Convergent validity shows that the assessment is related to what it should theoretically be related to. It is ideal that scales rate high in discriminant validity as well, which unlike convergent validity is designed to measure the extent to which a given scale differs from other scales designed to measure a different conceptual variable. Discriminant validity and convergent validity are the two good ways to measure construct validity. The validity of a measure ought to be gauged by comparing it to measures of the same concept developed through other methods.

Concurrent validity is a parameter used in sociology, psychology, and other psychometric or behavioral sciences. Concurrent validity is demonstrated where a test correlates well with a measure that has previously been Validity statistics validated . The two measures may be for the same construct, or for different, but presumably related, constructs. The two measures are taken at the same time. This is in contrast to predictive validity , where one measure occurs earlier and is meant to predict some later measure. ref McIntire, S.A. and Miller, L.A., Foundations of Psychological Testing,2nd Edition, Sage Publishing Co., 2005. ref Concurrent validity and predictive validity are two types of criterion related validity. The difference between concurrent validity and predictive validity rests solely on the time at which the two measures are administered. Concurrent validity applies to validation studies in which the two measures are administered at approximately the same time. For example, an employment test may be administered to a group of workers and then the test scores can be correlated with the ratings of the workers supervisors taken on the same day or in the same week. The resulting correlation would be a concurrent validity coefficient. Predictive validity differs only in that the time between taking the test and gathering supervisor ratings is longer, i.e., several months or years. In the example above, predictive validity would be the best choice for validating an employment test, because employment tests are designed to predict performance.

Face validity is a property of a test intended to measure something. It is the validity of a test at face value . In other words, a test can be said to have face validity if it looks like it is going to measure what it is supposed to measure. ref University of Salford School of Community, Health Sciences and Social Care http www.chssc.salford.ac.uk healthSci resmeth2000 resmeth validity.htm ref For instance, if you prepare a test to measure whether students can perform multiplication, and the people you show it to all agree that it looks like a good test of multiplication ability, you have shown the face validity of your test. Some people use the term face validity only to refer to the validity of observers who are not expert in testing methodologies. For instance, if you have a test that is designed to measure whether children are good spellers, and you ask their parents whether the test is a good test, you are studying the face validity of the test. If you ask an expert in testing spelling, some people would argue that you are not testing face validity. ref Anastasi, A. 1988 . Psychological testing. New York, NY Macmillan, p. 144 ref This distinction seems too careful for most applications. Generally face validity means that the test looks like it will work, as opposed to has been shown to work . Face validity is often contrasted with Content validity . Simulation In simulation, the first goal of the simulation modeler is to construct a model that appears reasonable on its face to model users and others who are knowledgeable about the real system being simulated. ref Banks, J. 2005 . Discrete Event System Simulation. Upper Saddle River, NJ Prentice Hall ref If these experts feel the model is adequate, then it has face validity.

In psychometrics , predictive validity is the extent to which a test score score on a scale social sciences scale or test student assessment test predicts scores on some criterion measure. ref Cronbach, L.J., & Meehl, P.E. 1955 . Construct validity for psychological tests. Psychological Bulletin , 52 , 281 302. http psychclassics.yorku.ca Cronbach construct.htm ref For example, the Validity statistics validity of a cognitive test for job performance is the correlation between test scores and, for example, supervisor performance ratings. Such a cognitive test would have predictive validity if the observed correlation were statistically significant. Predictive validity shares similarities with concurrent validity in that both are generally measured as correlations between a test and some criterion measure. In a study of concurrent validity the test is administered at the same time as the criterion is collected.

In psychometrics , content validity also known as logical validity refers to the extent to which a measure represents all facets of a given social construct . For example, a depression scale may lack content validity if it only assesses the affective dimension of depression but fails to take into account the behavioral dimension. An element of subjectivity exists in relation to determining content validity, which requires a degree of agreement about what a particular personality trait such as extraversion ... validity. ref cite book last Pennington first Donald authorlink Donald Pennington title Essential ... validity is different from face validity , which refers not to what the test actually measures, but to what it superficially appears to measure.
