Paper Abstract:
|
Validity is one of the essential criteria for an instrument to be used in counselling and educational learning instruction. Several components of validity requirements need to be validated before using the instrument. One of those components is content validity. As mentioned in the literature, content validity is a qualitative assessment. However, using qualitative assessment to analyse collective agreement among panel experts would create some issues. A few suggestions were made to find a seamless solution to overcome the problems. Among the suggestions is to use quantitative analysis rather than qualitative. Thus, this study aimed to explore an alternative approach to testing the content validity of an instrument. For this reason, a newly developed counselling needs assessment instrument was used to quantify the 16-panel experts' agreement. The instrument has 126 items, and the Fuzzy Delphi Method (FDM) was used to verify the panel experts' consensus on the instrument's content validity. The results have shown that out of 126 items, two items, item 62 and item 115, were discarded from the list as the items scored less than 0.5 of the defuzzification threshold value. |
