American Psychological Association Guidelines On Psychometric Assessment Validity and Reliability Requirements

The document outlines guidelines for psychometric constructs including construct definition, construct representation, assessment validity and reliability requirements, and test construction procedures. It notes that construct definition should be addressed early in assessment development by content experts to ensure all important areas are measured and nonessential areas excluded. It also discusses evaluating reliability over time through test-retest methods and generalizability theory to identify sources of response variation across individuals and test elements.
