PSYC 217 Lecture Notes - Lecture 12: Total Correlation, External Validity, Concurrent Validity
Document Summary
Results at time 1 should be very much the same as time 2. Different interpretations, how much they mesh with each other. Evaluated by intraclass correlation coefficient (icc), amongst others. Evaluated using cronbach"s alpha (a) combining inter-item correlations. No meaningful zero, completely arbitrary, still takes meaning. Temperature (from x in c* to x f*) Usually happens, but not a requirement of measures. Related to relevant outcomes assessed at the same time. Whether or not they steal in the context of a study. Related to scores on other measures of the same construct. A measure of aggression should be correlated to strong language. Not related (zero correlations) to what it shouldn"t relate to. A measure of aggression should not be correlated to how much you like to eat sushi. Condition characterized by difficulties in recognition and awareness of one"s own emotional states, as well as engaging in empathic responses to others.
