Key Concepts

Test Reliability

Test reliability refers to the consistency and stability of a measurement instrument. A reliable test consistently produces similar results over repeated administrations or across different sets of equivalent items, indicating that it is free from random errors that could distort the measurement.

Test Validity

Test validity measures whether a test actually assesses what it is intended to measure. Even though a test may yield consistent results (reliable), it must also accurately capture the target construct to be considered valid.
