Psychometric properties
What is the term?
___________________ : how accurately the test actually measures what it is supposed to measure
Validity
What is the term?
___________________ : the consistency of the results of the measure when TWO different people are evaluating the results of the same subject
Inter-rater reliability
What is the term?
___________________ : the ability for the measure to be able to capture change in status
Responsiveness
What is the term?
___________________ : occurs when the majority of patients are able to complete the measure and score within the highest range of the measurement. The test is too easy and is not capturing their full capacity.
