LBB CHAPTER 30: RELIABILITY AND VALIDITY

Across
Which test scores would have higher internal consistency reliability in 16-year-olds? DKEFS or WISCV VCI subtests?
_______ refers to the consistency of measurement of a given score.
A high internal consistency coefficient would be close to _______.
In most cases, the shorter the time interval between test and retest, the ______ the retest reliability coefficient will be.
_____ validity provides information on whether the test items actually measure the construct they are intended to measure.
(two words) Also known as Spearman-Brown reliability coefficient, this one of the 3 reliability coefficients.
(two words) According to LBB Chapter 30, this is the most important aspect of validity for us smart-pant clinical neuropsychologists.
-alpha; Also known as Cronbach's alpha, this reliability coefficient would be used with items that yield more than 2 response types (e.g., items are scored 0, 1, or 2)
______ reliability is the extent to which the individual items within a test measure the same cognitive domain or construct.
______validity, at its most basic, refers to sensitivity and utility of a test.
Down
(two words) This type of reliability is the extent to which the individual items within a test measure the same cognitive domain or construct.
Tests measuring ____________ abilities, (e.g., attention or mood) may have lower test-retest reliability.
______ validity is the extent to which examinees believe a test measures what it appears to measure.
(two words) This type of reliability is the extent to which a test produces the same results when two different versions of it are given to the same group of people.
These kinds of tests typically have high test-retest correlations because they are designed a-priori to capture stable estimates of an individual’s ability levels.
This type of reliability is the degree of consensus between different raters in scoring items.
Content- and time-sampling errors can be introduced with _____ forms of a test.
Compared to WAIS-IV Block Design, this subtest has the higher test-retest correlation.
Internal reliability is usually assessed with an estimate of the average _________among items within the test.
_________ validity is the degree to which a test measures what it claims, or purports, to be measuring.
All things being equal, a scale with more items such as a composite score tends to have ________ internal consistency than a scale with few items, such as a subscale score.
_______ refers to the degree to which a test actually measures what it is intended to measure.
Concurrent and predictive validity differ in terms of a _____________ gradient. Bonus points: How do they differ?
The MMSE tends to have ________ internal reliability because it is designed to sample a variety of content domains over a few items.
