What is Content Validation? • In psychometrics, content validity (also known as logical validity) refers to the extent to which a measure represents all facets of a given construct. • It is different than “face validity” or opinion. • Review article – Mary R. Lynn, (1986). Determination and Quantification of Content Validity, Nursing Research, pp. 382 -385.

Lynn’s Rating Scale for Content Validity • Not Relevant • Unable to assess relevance without a revision or an item is in need of such revision it would no longer be relevant • Relevant but needs minor revision • Very relevant and succinct

Specific Request of this Group Step 1 - Identify and focus content validation on the issues raised by public comment and the content validation panel. a. Review and rate public comment issues b. Identify, communicate and rate any additional issues raised by participants.

Public Comment – Identified Areas (1) Definition of Clinical Nurse Specialists (lines 248 -311, NACNS Statement) (2) Legislative regulation of CNS practice (lines 412 -433, NACNS Statement) (3) Curricular recommendations (lines 613 -657, NACNS Statement) (4) CNS practice: patient direct care sphere (lines 365 -375, NACNS Statement)

Proposed Schedule June 28 - Orientation call July 2 – Deadline for receipt of additional items for content validation July 9 - Content validation survey for all participants (online and face to face meeting) opens July 17 - Content validation survey closes July 18 - Final agenda and face to face meeting

Principles Guiding the Process Keep in mind: • This work is a revision of previously published work • The focus of the effort is on content validation • The recommendations of the content validation panel will advise the content • Items will not make the July 18, 2018 agenda unless they go through the content validation process • Individuals are asked to approach this process in the role of ‘critical friend’ • Some issues may be raised that do not fit within the content validation construct. If this occurs, the facilitator will help the group determine the correct environment to deal with these issues.

Ground Rules 1. Everyone is gracious, attentive, succinct, and focused on this one mission. 2. We start and end on time. 3. One person speaks at a time, and is identified every time. When not speaking, use "mute" not "hold. " 4. Everyone's views will be sought - including the quiet. 5. Points are good to make once. Agree, not remake.
