To begin developing validity for the checklist, it was essential to know that content reflected its intended purpose [ 11] and was relevant to the patient population and clinical setting, and useful for ICU physicians during morning rounds.
This review focuses on three types of research papers: those which develop diagnostic validity (DV), those which accomplish psychometric validity (PV) and those which evaluate the effectiveness of fall risk assessment instruments (EFRA).
These results strongly support the view of policy documents regarding the challenge in quality measurement and the need to develop the validity of the indicators.
To develop content validity of a comprehensive patient-reported outcome (PRO) measure following current best scientific methodology to standardize assessment of influenza (flu) symptoms in clinical research.
While all three studies introduced new self-administered questionnaires, only one analyzed data regarding non-responders [ 28], while two [ 27, 28] did not mention steps taken to develop content validity.
Because of variations within technical systems, including the one for which a certain test was once developed, the validity of the method also varies.
The current study sought to begin developing the validity argument for the evaluation tool.
The thorough questionnaire items, covering the network working infrastructures – governance, clinical, marketing, financial, and information integration in PCCNs, were developed with validity and reliability confirmed.
When using an existing checklist on a new population for which it was not originally developed, its validity should be considered.
A uniform national portfolio of learning has been developed, content validity has been established among the eight family medicine training programmes, and implemented with registrars in all eight departments of family medicine [ 40, 41].
