Rethinking measurement validity
Wendy Higgins, University of Melbourne
Abstract
Valid measurement is critical for empirical research. Yet a growing body of literature suggests that validation practices in the social and psychological sciences are often highly inadequate, with measures routinely failing to capture the constructs they are intended to assess. This talk reviews current validation practices and proposes paths to better measurement.
