S5E6: What is Validity Anyway? - Within & Between

What this episode covers

Understanding whether a conclusion in a paper you read or an experiment you run is a valid one is, well, let’s just say pretty important, and more than a little confusing. In this episode, we talk through the Big Four Validities (™): Internal, External, Statistical Conclusion, and Construct Validity. It may sound similar, but we promise this is more fun than your last research methods lecture! In this episode we mention: Shadish WR, Cook TD, & Campbell DT (2002). Experimental and quasi-experimental designs for generalized causal inference. Boston, MA: Houghton-Mifflin Email us letters about developmental science at [email protected].
