What approach do the authors use to establish content validity?
Content validity is the “degree to which an instrument has an appropriate sample of items for the construct being measured and adequately covers the construct domain.” To ensure a “content-valid” instrument, researchers should start with a conceptualization of the construct. This can be based on:
· First-hand knowledge
· Literature review
· Expert consultations
· Preliminary qualitative studies
