Reliability and Validity
Psychology ⇒ Research Methods in Psychology
Reliability and Validity starts at 11 and continues till grade 12.
QuestionsToday has an evolving set of questions to continuously challenge students so that their knowledge grows in Reliability and Validity.
How you perform is determined by your score and the time you take.
When you play a quiz, your answers are evaluated in concept instead of actual words and definitions used.
See sample questions for grade 12
A researcher develops a new intelligence test. To check if the test items are consistent with each other, which type of reliability should be assessed?
A researcher finds that their test scores are highly consistent over repeated administrations, but the test does not measure the intended construct. What does this indicate about the test's reliability and validity?
A researcher finds that two raters agree on 90% of their observations. What does this indicate about the study's reliability?
A researcher splits a test into two halves and finds a correlation of 0.85 between the two sets of scores. What does this indicate about the test's reliability?

A test designed to measure depression is compared with an established clinical interview for depression. This is an example of assessing which type of validity? (1) Face validity, (2) Predictive validity, (3) Concurrent validity, (4) Content validity
Which of the following best describes predictive validity? (1) The test predicts future performance, (2) The test appears valid to test-takers, (3) The test is consistent over time, (4) The test covers all aspects of the concept
Which of the following best describes validity in psychological testing? (1) The test measures what it claims to measure, (2) The test gives consistent results, (3) The test is easy to administer, (4) The test is popular among researchers.
Which of the following is a method for assessing internal consistency reliability? (1) Cronbach's alpha, (2) Test-retest, (3) Inter-rater, (4) Predictive validity
A test is said to have high ________ validity if it accurately reflects the full domain of the concept it is intended to measure.
Fill in the blank: ________ validity is concerned with how well a test outcome predicts future behavior or performance.
Fill in the blank: ________ validity is demonstrated when a test correlates well with a measure that has previously been validated.
Fill in the blank: ________ validity refers to the extent to which a test appears to measure what it is supposed to measure, based on subjective judgment.
True or False: A test can be reliable but not valid.
True or False: A test with high content validity must include items that represent all aspects of the construct being measured.
True or False: Construct validity is established by showing that a test is related to other measures as specified by theory.
True or False: Content validity is concerned with whether the test covers the entire range of the concept being measured.
