Also, the discriminant validity of the 5 nonacademic subscales was clearly demonstrated by showing that each external criterion was more highly correlated with the predicted (matching) Self-Description Questionnaire II subscale than any of the Self-Description Questionnaire II subscales. Hence, these ...
The objective was to investigate the transcultural diagnostic validity of the Social Communication Questionnaire (SCQ) in a clinical sample of 451 adults with Intellectual Developmental Disorder (IDD) with and without ASD in Germany, the U.S.A. and Great Britain. Variables associated with higher ...
The scale for measuring teacher judgments of students’ cognitive ability was developed within the THINK project. The validity of the scales has been demonstrated in prior studies (Baudson et al.,2016a; Bergold et al.,2021; Gnas et al.,2022b). Teachers judged their students’ cognitive abilit...
validity is demonstrated by negative correlation with a loneliness scale. It was developed on a narrow age band (children in grade 3 to 5), which needs to be considered when used on other age groups. Interestingly, this questionnaire has been cited at a much higher rate than other very ...
The questionnaire provided participants with the opportunity to add free-text comments. A random sample of three experts was selected to complete a pre-survey and confirm its validity. This list is presented in Table 2. Table 2 Information of the 13 experts interviewed in Delphi. Full size ...
which were in expected directions withr = .23 between status and income,r = .17 between affection and having a partner, andr = .03 between behavioral confirmation and church attendance, among others. These results support the construct validity of our social need operationalization....
To increase the validity and reliability of the results, each construct in the model has multiple items adapted from previous studies with minor changes to fit the research context. All the questionnaire information was translated from English to Chinese with manual testing to optimize wording and gr...
First, the quality of the measurement model was evaluated by checking the reliability and validity of each construct [46]. Cronbach’s alpha was used to check the internal consistency of each construct, and the results showed that the reliability was at an acceptable level. We then performed ...
we consider the issue of authenticity to instead be an issue of validity. To this end, there are empirical findings that support the idea that IVR can provide an authentic and valid research environment. For instance, there is evidence that students’ individually different reactions to distractions...
The questionnaire data passed the reliability test (Cronbach’s Alpha = 0.769, >0.7) and validity test (Kaiser–Meyer–Olkin = 0.776, >0.6). The basic information of the participants was summarised in Supplementary Table S2. As the survey was a random interview questionnaire, the compo...
