VALIDATION DATA

MEASUREMENT PROPERTIES
Limitations >=5 European languages (English)
Observations
1. RELIABILITY
A. Internal Consistency Tested
Cronbach's (Describe)

Cronbach's a =0.88

B. Reliability intraobserver or test-retest Tested
Continuous scores: intraclass
correlation coefficient (ICC)
Dichotomus: Cohen kappa (Describe)

A test–retest reliability assessment was conducted. Thirty respondents from the pilot survey were reinterviewed two weeks after the initial interview with the same protocol. Twenty-eight of the 30 respondents had a retest activation estimate within the 95 percent CI of their test activation estimate.

C. Reliability interobserver or Measurement error Not Tested
Standard error of measurement (SEM),
smallest detectable change (SDC) or
Limits of agreement (LoA) (Describe)
2. VALIDITY
A. Content validity: face validity Tested
Expert opinion (relevance and
comprehensiveness) (Describe)

The items in the pool were categorized under the domains they were intended to measure and were reviewed by a subset of the expert panel for face and content validity.

B. Construct Validity:
Structural validity
Tested
Hypotheses-testing Tested
Cross-cultural validity Tested
