Question 1

Which of the following do you think are the most critical characteristics in selecting a measure?

Accepted Answer

A)  Validity: if a measure doesn't measure the concept it is supposed to measure, why bother? 
B)  Reliability: if a measure doesn't consistently give the same results when it's used under similar conditions, why bother? 
C)  Easy to use: if a measure is so complicated to use, regardless of its validity or reliability, why bother? 
D)  Accessible: if a measure is expensive or restricted, regardless if it is easy to use, valid, and reliable, why bother? 
E)  all of the above
F) none of the above
