Detailed explanation-1: -Validity refers to how well a test measures what it is purported to measure. Why is it necessary? While reliability is necessary, it alone is not sufficient. For a test to be reliable, it also needs to be valid.
Detailed explanation-2: -Test validity refers to the degree to which the test actually measures what it claims to measure. Test validity is also the extent to which inferences, conclusions, and decisions made on the basis of test scores are appropriate and meaningful.
Detailed explanation-3: -Validity refers to what characteristic the test measures and how well the test measures that characteristic. Validity tells you if the characteristic being measured by a test is related to job qualifications and requirements. Validity gives meaning to the test scores.
Detailed explanation-4: -Validity refers to the degree to which a test measures what it is supposed to measure.
Detailed explanation-5: -The concept of validity was formulated by Kelly (1927, p. 14) who stated that a test is valid if it measures what it claims to measure. For example a test of intelligence should measure intelligence and not something else (such as memory). A distinction can be made between internal and external validity.
