VALIDITY: WHAT IS IT? WHAT IS IT NOT?

Year 2019, Volume: 6 Issue: 2, 373 - 385, 29.12.2019

Abstract

Measurement is at the core of scientific research and
validity is at the heart of measurement. Validity is accepted as the most
important concept in measurement. Despite this importance, validity is still
misunderstood and misused.
The concept and theory of validity have
undergone numerous changes, in other words, evolution, in the last 100 years. The most radical changes occurred in the early 1980s,
with studies emphasizing that validity is related to interpretations of test
scores. In the 1999 Standards, which
was the culmination of the change process, the three-part type of validity
based on content validity, criterion-related validity, and construct validity was rejected, and the contemporary
view was put forward, arguing validity as a unitary concept based on various
types of validity evidence. Validity is the degree to which evidence and theory
support the adequacy and appropriateness of the proposed interpretations and
uses of the scores obtained from the test or measurement instrument applied to
a particular population or sample. Besides, reliability is the reproductibility  or the consistency 
of the scores obtained from the test or measurement
instrument applied to a particular population or sample.

Geçerlik: Nedir? Ne Değildir?

Year 2019, Volume: 6 Issue: 2, 373 - 385, 29.12.2019

Abstract







Ölçme, bilimsel
araştırmanın merkezinde, geçerlik ise, ölçmenin kalbindedir. Geçerlik, ölçmedeki
en önemli kavram olarak kabul edilmektedir. Bu önemine rağmen, geçerlik, hâlâ
çok yanlış anlaşılmakta ve hatalı kullanılmaktadır. Geçerlik kavram ve
kuramı, son 100 yılda sayısız değişiklikler, bir diğer ifadeyle evrim
geçirmiştir. En köklü değişimler ise, geçerliğin, test ölçümlerinden yapılan
yorumlarla ilgili olduğunu vurgulayan çalışmalarla 1980’lerin başlarında
meydana gelmiştir. Değişim sürecinin doruk noktası olan 1999 Standartlarında ise, kapsam geçerliği, ölçüt ilişkili
geçerlik ile yapı geçerliği şeklindeki geçerliğin üç parçalı türü reddedilmiş
ve geçerliği, çeşitli geçerlik kanıtı türlerine dayalı bütüncül bir kavram
olarak ortaya koyan çağdaş görüş sergilenmiştir. Geçerlik, belirli bir evrene
veya örnekleme uygulanan bir test ya da ölçme aracından elde edilen
ölçümlerin kullanımlarının ve önerilen yorumlarının uygunluğunun ve
yeterliğinin, kuram ve kanıt ile desteklenme derecesidir. Bunun yanı sıra,
güvenirlik, belirli bir evrene veya örnekleme uygulanan bir test ya da ölçme
aracından elde edilen ölçümlerin tutarlılığı veya tekrarlanabilirliğidir.
