  2. Discriminant validity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discriminant_validity

    In psychology, discriminant validity tests whether concepts or measurements that are not supposed to be related are actually unrelated. Campbell and Fiske (1959) introduced the concept of discriminant validity within their discussion on evaluating test validity .

  3. Validity (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Validity_(statistics)

    The validity of a measurement tool (for example, a test in education) is the degree to which the tool measures what it claims to measure. [3] Validity is based on the strength of a collection of different types of evidence (e.g. face validity, construct validity, etc.) described in greater detail below.

  4. Multitrait-multimethod matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multitrait-multimethod_matrix

    The multitrait-multimethod (MTMM) matrix is an approach to examining construct validity developed by Campbell and Fiske (1959). [1] It organizes convergent and discriminant validity evidence for comparison of how a measure relates to other measures. The conceptual approach has influenced experimental design and measurement theory in psychology ...

  5. Average variance extracted - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Average_variance_extracted

    The average variance extracted has often been used to assess discriminant validity based on the following "rule of thumb": the positive square root of the AVE for each of the latent variables should be higher than the highest correlation with any other latent variable. If that is the case, discriminant validity is established at the construct ...

  6. Linear discriminant analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_discriminant_analysis

    Linear discriminant analysis (LDA), normal discriminant analysis (NDA), canonical variates analysis (CVA), or discriminant function analysis is a generalization of Fisher's linear discriminant, a method used in statistics and other fields, to find a linear combination of features that characterizes or separates two or more classes of objects or ...

  7. Construct validity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Construct_validity

    Convergent validity refers to the degree to which two measures of constructs that theoretically should be related, are in fact related. In contrast, discriminant validity tests whether concepts or measurements that are supposed to be unrelated are, in fact, unrelated. [19] Take, for example, a construct of general happiness.

  8. Convergent validity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convergent_validity

    Convergent validity in the behavioral sciences refers to the degree to which two measures that theoretically should be related, are in fact related. [1] Convergent validity, along with discriminant validity, is a subtype of construct validity. Convergent validity can be established if two similar constructs correspond with one another, while ...

  9. Common-method variance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common-method_variance

    A comprehensive example of this technique has been demonstrated by Williams et al. (2010). [7] Kock (2015) discusses a full collinearity test that is successful in the identification of common method bias with a model that nevertheless passes standard convergent and discriminant validity assessment criteria based on a CFA.
