Discuss potential challenges to validity and reliability of your research question‚ data‚ and analysis. Validity and reliability are the backbone of what is accepted as scientific proof by researchers. Potential challenges to reliability of a research question‚ data‚ and analyses are any significant results must be repeatable. Anyone who wanted to perform the same experiment applying the same conditions should arrive at the same result. If this is successful this reinforces the results

Discuss issues of reliability and validity associated with the classification and diagnosis of phobic disorders. ( 8+16) A phobia is an irrational fear which interferes with daily life. For a phobia to be diagnosed it must meet the criterion set by the diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders. Reliability and validity are two important factors when considering classification of mental disorders; they must be present for an accurate classification to be made. Reliability and validity

of a sample within a composition that is unidentified. Absorption spectroscopy is used in order to determine the ε value; ε was calculated to be .0566. Introduction: The purpose of the Absorption Spectroscopy experiment is to evaluate the reliability and accuracy when using Beer-Lambert Law to determine the concentration of a specific sample within a mixture solution. The number of electrons being absorbed as well as the correlating photons emitted as the electron returns back down to ground

Discuss the validity‚ reliability and physiological foundations of a test versus a predictive maximal oxygen uptake test. Abstract The aim of this study was to assess the validity‚ reliability and physiological underpinnings of an actual VO2max test in comparison to a predictive maximal oxygen uptake test. Eight male subjects with the following physical characteristics‚ mean and standard deviation age 19.75 ± 0.71 year; weight 72.15 ± 11.93 kg; height 1.77 ± 0.11 m performed an incremental treadmill
