What defines criterion-predictive validity and how is it measured? - ✔✔It predicts
similar skills in the future and it is measured by correlation between scores on instruments
What defines construct validity and how is it measured? - ✔✔It is a theoretical measure
and is associated with similar skills and differentiates from non similar skills.; It's measures by
correlation between scores on other measures.
What is test reliabiltiy? - ✔✔It is how well the results can be reproduced if the
same measurement were repeated on the same subject.
Test-retest reliability is defined as ___. - ✔✔responses remain stable over time
Internal consistency reliability is defined as ___. - ✔✔Agreement among items in
the instrument that they measure the same thing
Alternative form reliability is defined as ___. - ✔✔different items measure the same topic
Intra-observer reliability is defined as ___. - ✔✔observer is rating consistency
Inter-observer reliability is defined as ___. - ✔✔different observers agree.
What is public health? - ✔✔It promotes and protects health of individuals and
communities through scientific research, education, policies, tracking disease outbreaks and

(T/F) Mandatory vaccinations are a primary prevention strategy - ✔✔Truuuu
What is secondary prevention? - ✔✔it is focused on reducing the impact of a disease
or injury that has already occured.
Is routine imaging an example of primary or secondary prevention? - ✔✔secondary
What is Tertiary prevention focused on? - ✔✔It is focused on reducing the impact of
ongoing illness or injury with long term effects.
What are the three key measures that determine a screening test's reliabilty? -
✔✔sensitivity, specificity, and predictive value
When would sensitivity be prioritized? - ✔✔When the disease is serious and focusing on
the maximum # of true positives would reduce harm
When is secificity a priority? - ✔✔When treatment is not preferred and is only carreid out
when there is confidence the person has the disease and would benefit from treatment. Also
subsequent test are expensive and risky.
