[SOLVED] To V or Not to V

“In this unit, you are introduced to personality tests and issues with their
development and use. One particular area of debate involves the inclusion of
validity scales in tests of personality. While many concerns may exist, the use of
such scales appears to be increasing and they continue to be utilized and
interpreted.

In your post:
 Analyze how validity in psychometrics, as you explored in Unit 4, is
different from a validity scale in a test of personality.
 Describe this difference in terms of their definitions.
o Provide at least two examples of validity scales.
 Integrate and cite the AERA standards from Chapter 10, "Psychological
Testing and Assessment," of your Standards for Educational and
Psychological Testing text that directly address validity scales. Provide
your interpretation of the standards and the use of validity scales.
o Discuss if the standards permit, reject, or provide guidance on
integrating such scales in a report.
o State, in your own words, how one should, or should not, proceed
with validity scales.

 Cite at least one advantage and one disadvantage regarding the use of
validity scales. The test authors provide several pros and cons of using
validity scales in personality assessment.
o Based on your readings, including preparation for this discussion,
what is your position on this issue; that is, using and interpreting
validity scales on a measure of personality?

When you post this discussion, change your subject line to Use, or Don't Use.”
