Comparing Human Expertise and Large Language Models Embeddings in Content Validity Assessment of Personality Tests [PDF]

arXiv
In this article we explore the application of Large Language Models (LLMs) in assessing the content validity of psychometric instruments, focusing on the Big Five Questionnaire (BFQ) and Big Five Inventory (BFI). Content validity, a cornerstone of test construction, ensures that psychological measures adequately cover their intended constructs.
