EvaluationSelf reports tend to not be valid because of social-desirablilty bias in which people may lie to make themselves look better, this will effect the validity as we are not sure if we are testing what we are supposed to be testing.Self reports tend to be quite reliable as they are easier to standardise and therefore replicate, except in the case of unstructured interviews. |
