In Week 2, you selected three standardized tests from one category that have relevance to your academic and professional goals or a related profession. Your Week 2 assignment focused on the purpose, contents and constructs assessed, norms, and required training of psychological tests. For this assignment, you will complete a deeper analysis of the technical quality of your three selected tests by focusing on reliability and validity evidence. To complete this assignment, you will draw upon the knowledge you gained in Weeks 3 and 4 about psychometrics in general and reliability and validity in particular.
For this assignment, use the three tests you selected for your assignment in Week 2. Locate and summarize a minimum of two articles related to the technical qualities for each selected test. You are encouraged to use the PSY7610 Library Research GuideLinks to an external site. to assist your search. The library has also prepared the Psyc Tests and Measures to help you though common hurdles with searching the library for this course.
For each article:
List the APA reference for each journal article (a minimum of six).
Identify if the article addresses reliability or validity.
Discuss if the article addresses sources of error variance, reliability estimates, evidence of validity, or bias and fairness.
Identify the specific type of reliability or validity (for example, test-retest reliability, predictive validity, etc.).
Identify the overall results of the research, including any psychometric or statistical outcome.
Guidelines for Selecting the Literature
Use the most current sources you can find. You may cite older sources if they are classics, if you want to show the chronology of something, or if you have another good reason (i.e., the test was published more than 8 years ago). If you choose to use older sources, you will need to explain why. Use current, peer-reviewed journal articles for more current tests. Do not use sources without an author or a publication date. Do not use quotes; use only your own words. Please see Academic Honesty & APA Style and Formatting for concerns with high content matching in papers. Evaluate whether the results support the use of your test as appropriate for your field and populations to be served.
Note: The articles you need to complete this assignment should be available inside the library collection. In future courses, you may use the Capella library’s Interlibrary Loan service to obtain articles outside of the collection, but you should not have to use the service for this course. In the event that you cannot find articles covering a newer test edition, please refer to the List of Tests by Type [DOCX] document. Note which tests have been designated as acceptable for searching prior test editions.
Instructions for the content of the paper are in the u05a1 Assignment Template [DOC].

Your paper should meet the following requirements:
References: A minimum of six journal articles (textbooks, websites, literature reviews, and the MMY book reviews do not count for these references but can be used to supplement).
Length of paper: Evaluation must be at least six double-spaced pages, not including the title page or references (an abstract is not required).
APA format: Current APA format and style is required throughout. Be sure to use the correct format and style for each respective type of reference, for example, website site versus journal). Refer to the Academic Writer for guidance.
