Validity and Validation
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 4.22 $The Understanding Research series focuses on the process of writing up social research. The series is broken down into three categories: Understanding Statistics, Understanding Measurement, and Understanding Qualitative Research. The books provide researchers with guides to understanding, writing, and evaluating social research. Each volume demonstrates how research should be represented, including how to write up the methodology as well as the research findings. Each volume also reviews how to appropriately evaluate published research. Validity and Validation is an introduction to validity theory and to the methods used to obtain evidence for the validity of research and assessment results. The book pulls together the best thinking from educational and psychological research and assessment over the past 50 years. It briefly describes validity theory's roots in the philosophy of science. It highlights the ways these philosophical perspectives influence concepts of internal and external validity in research methodology, as well as concepts of validity and reliability in educational and psychological tests and measurements. Each chapter provides multiple examples (e.g., research designs and examples of output) to help the readers see how validation work is done in practice, from the ways we design research studies to the ways we interpret research results. Of particular importance is the practical focus on validation of scores from tests and other measures. The book also addresses strategies for investigating the validity of inferences we make about examinees using scores from assessments, as well as how to investigate score uses, the value implications of score interpretations, and the social consequences of score use. With this foundation, the book presents strategies for minimizing threats for validity as well as quantitative and qualitative methods for gathering evidence for the validity of scores.

The Validity of the Christian Mission
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 101.72 $A recent tour brought Elton Trueblood into dose contact with missionaries around the world. His observations have led him to challenge directly the idea that the mission effort is obsolete. This book deals broadly with Christianity as a missionary faith. The author examines current popular ideas that derogate Christian outreach, among them cultural relativism and the concept that all religions are equally valuable. Dr. Trueblood is convinced that the popular view is both confused and false and shows where and why this mistake arises. Dr. Trueblood sees that the missionary movement- is not an activity of passing value nor is it merely a tagged-on function which may or may not be practiced. The missionary movement is intrinsic to the entire conception and a non-missionary Christian is a contradiction in terms. Dr. Trueblood concludes that we have been afflicted with a kind of tolerance that is intellectually indefensible. If we are to recover the vitality of the missionary effort, we must have a theology which leads us to share whatever we really prize.

Cultural Validity in Assessment: Addressing Linguistic and Cultural Diversity (Language, Culture, and Teaching Series) [first edition]
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 44.83 $What is assessment and how is it a cultural practice? How does failure to account for linguistic and cultural variation among students jeopardize assessment validity? What is required to achieve cultural validity in assessment?

The book lays out criteria for culturally valid assessment and recommends specific strategies that teachers can use to design and implement culturally valid classroom assessments.

Reliability and Validity in Qualitative Research (Qualitative Research Methods)
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 26.01 $Kirk and Miller define what is -- and what is not -- qualitative research. They suggest that the use of numbers in the process of recording and analyzing observations is less important than that the research should involve sustained interaction with the people being studied, in their own language and in their own surroundings. 'Qualitative research conducted as science should complement nonqualitative science,' they observe. 'Understanding the workings of scientific endeavour, whether it is of the natural or social variety, entails an appreciation of its objectivity . . . By this convention, the objectivity of a piece of qualititative research is evaluated in terms of the reliability and validity of its observations on culture.' After an introductory chapter on objectivity, the authors discuss the role of reliability and validity in the unfolding of science, and the problems that may arise when these two issues are neglected. They present a paradigm for the qualitative research process that makes it possible to pursue validity without neglecting reliability.

Reliable Truth : The Validity of the Bible in an Age of Skepticism
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 2.31 $What do science, history, and logic have to say about the reliability of the Bible? This book presents in a profound way how the Bible reflects the true nature of reality. Reliable Truth is about seeing the world as it is while debunking the myths, legends, and false beliefs about the Bible. This book tracks a series of presentations given over the course of a year. Richard Simmons thoroughly researches History, Archeology, Ancient Writings and Science to explore the Bible and its validity. The author turns to the world’s leading scholars, experts, and commentators on the subjects that touch on the Bible’s legitimacy.So many people grew up being told that the bible is the word of God, but are never told why they should believe it. This book provides compelling evidence that undergirds the validity of the Bible.According to the author, “What I had found in my research was that most books written on the validity of the Bible were very scholarly and hard to read, but there was nothing out there for everyday people. I wanted to write a book where a high school student or average man or woman would find it to be a good, compelling read.”This book is an excellent source for Bible studies and small groups.
