Test-retest reliability: people being observed twice or taking the same test twice. Alternate-form reliability: given two forms of a test so people don"t remember answers. Internal consistency reliability: assesses whether the items on a test are related to one another. Validity: generally related to whether a measure fulfills its intended purpose. Content validity: whether a measure adequately samples the domain of interest (appropriate qu?) Construct validity: interpret a test as a measure of some characteristic that is not simply defined.
