Discriminatory Power - An Obsolete Validation Criterion?

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2008
In this paper we analyse two common measures of discriminatory power - the Accuracy Ratio and the Area Under the Receiver Operator Characteristic - in a probabilistic framework. Under the assumption of a random default event, we verify that the measures will be portfolio dependent as discovered by Hamerle et al.

Validity of running criterion

SPIE Proceedings, 2015
The validity of running criterion for vector and scalar fields is analyzed. It is shown that such criterion may be used for scalar fields of any kind. This criterion may be implemented for relatively simple vector fields like heterogeneously polarized beams with central symmetry of their parameters and it cannot use for vector field of general type ...

Criterion-Related Validity of a Clinical Simulation

Journal of Nursing Education, 1986
ABSTRACT This study explored the criterion-related validity of a clinical simulation by examining nurse practitioner's (NP) performance as measured by a chart audit and direct observation of care with performance on a clinical simulation.

Criterion-Related Construct Validity

Psychometrika, 1989
Established results on latent variable models are applied to the study of the validity of a psychological test. When the test predicts a criterion by measuring a unidimensional latent construct, not only must the total score predict the criterion, but the joint distribution of criterion scores and item responses must exhibit a certain pattern.

Rapid onset: A valid panic disorder criterion?

Depression and Anxiety, 1997
This study examined the value of the DSM-IV time criterion for panic disorder (PD) requiring an abrupt onset to panic attacks (PAs) with a time to peak intensity (TTPI) of less than 10 min, and evaluated features distinguishing rapid onset (TTPI < 10) from prolonged onset (TTPI > 10) panickers.

Validation of Criterion-Referenced Archery Cutting Scores

Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1993
This study investigated an empirical method for setting optimal cutting scores for a criterion-referenced archery test. The classification-outcome probabilities and approaches to validity suggested by Berk were utilized. Pretest scores were obtained on 35 uninstructed college-age women on six ends (six arrows each) from 20 yards (18.3 m) after an ...

Criterion Validity of a Coping Measure

Journal of Personality Assessment, 1994
A paucity of evidence for the validity of coping questionnaires prompted investigation of the Coping Strategy Indicator (CSI; Amirkhan, 1990), a self-report measure of three fundamental modes of coping that has already demonstrated considerable psychometric strength.

An Internal Criterion of Test Validity

Psychological Reports, 1968
It has been suggested that the procedures of construct validation include at least two distinct processes: one is the validation of the test for measuring a hypothesized construct and the other is the validation of the construct, i.e., its usefulness and significance as a part of a theoretical system.

Empirical Validation of Criterion-Referenced Tests

The Journal of Educational Research, 1985
AbstractThis study examined the test-retest reliability and criterion validity of basal mastery tests of three widely used commercial reading series. Traditional correlational analyses as well as statistical procedures developed specifically for criterion-referenced tests were employed.
