| 1. | There are questions about the external validity of the AS diagnosis.
|
| 2. | Neither internal nor external validity are captured in a single experiment.
|
| 3. | When external validity is low, the credibility of your research comes into doubt.
|
| 4. | Depending on the goals of the experiment, this may diminish its external validity.
|
| 5. | The apparent contradiction of internal validity and external validity is, however, only superficial.
|
| 6. | Usually Quasi-experiments are chosen by experimenters because they maximize internal and external validity.
|
| 7. | Other factors jeopardizing external validity are:
|
| 8. | In particular, a hotly contested issue with regards to field experiments is their external validity.
|
| 9. | Some researchers believe that a good way to increase external validity is by conducting field experiments.
|
| 10. | Through replication, researchers can study a given research question with maximal internal and external validity.
