6. Population validity
- how well a finding predicts what happens beyond the research
- Whether the results from the sample can be generalized to the target population
- When a narrow measure has been used
- Whether the researcher are measuring how people actually behave in real-world setting
7. External Validity
- whether the reseacher is measuring how people actually behave in a real-world setting
- data that we gather which supports the results from a different measure
- Generalizable beyond the research
- whether the results from the sample can be generalized to the target populations
8. Criterion/ Predictive validity
- hether the results from the sample can be generalized to the target population
- Have we gathered the data which supports the results from a different measure
- How well findings predict what happens beyond the research
- Whether the researcher is measuring how people actually behave in a real-world setting
