| construct validity | The extent to which a test or procedure appears to measure a higher order, inferred theoretical construct, or trait in contrast to measuring a more limited, specific dimension; e.g., a sychrony in the scores on the Stanford-Binet Test, on a test of information processing, and the rate of glucose metabolism in the brain all are indices of intelligence.

| personal construct theory | A psychological theory based on dimensions or categories used by a given person in describing or explaining the personality and behaviour of others or of himself. The basic idea is that different people will use consistently different categories. The theory was formulated in the fifties by george kelly. Two tests devised by him are the role construct repertory test and the repertory grid test. (12 Dec 1998) |

| construct | (noun) The combination of a bone graft, metal instrumentation, prosthetic devices and/or bone cement applied to a specific level of the spinal column in the setting of segmental spinal instability. (05 Mar 2000) |
| validity | 1. The extent to which a measurement, test or study measures what it purports to measure. 2. Occasionally, accuracy. (18 Nov 1997) |
| concurrent validity | An index of criterion-related validity used to predict performance in a real-life situation given at about the same time as the test or procedure; the extent to which the index from one test correlates with that of a nonidentical test or index; e.g., how well a score on an aptitude test correlates with the score on an intelligence test. (05 Mar 2000) |
| content validity | The extent to which the items of a test or procedure are in fact a representative sample of that which is to be measured; e.g., items relating to ability in arithmetic and defining words are appropriate content for an intelligence test. (05 Mar 2000) |
| criterion-related validity | The degree of effectiveness with which performance on a test or procedure predicts performance in a real-life situation; e.g., a good correlation between a score on an intelligence test such as the Scholastic Aptitude Test and one's 4-year college grade point average. (05 Mar 2000) |
| predictive validity | Criterion-related validity used to predict performance in a real-life task at a future time. See: construct validity, criterion-related validity. (05 Mar 2000) |
| face validity | The extent to which the items of a test or procedure appear superficially to sample that which is to be measured. (05 Mar 2000) |
| construct validity |
In social science and psychometrics, construct validity refers to whether a scale measures the unobservable construct (such as "fluid intelligence") that it purports to measure. The unobservable idea of a unidimensional easier-to-harder dimension must be "constructed" in the words of human language and graphics. A construct is not restricted to one set of observable indicators or attributes. It is common to a number of sets of indicators. ...
