Chapter: An Integrated Argument-based Approach to Validation

DOI: 10.1558/equinox.39797

Blurb:

This chapter affirms that the traditions represented in the USA and the UK are both critical to validity conceptualisation. The authors argue that these test development and measurement arguments, however, are not sufficient. Validity documentation should also consider arguments related to consequences and stakeholder engagement.
