Assessment of Construct Validity in Management Research: A Structured Guideline

Year: 2009

Type: article

Abstract: The use of unobservable constructs in management research is common. But an error in measuring a construct may have a serious effect on research findings. To bring rigor in research, it is therefore, essential for the researcher to first establish an evidence of construct validity before testing the theory. Construct validity is a complex process and often a researcher looks for an adequate framework to negotiate this. This paper explains the importance of construct validity in management research and provides a structured framework for assessing it.
