  • Same name, different constructs (jingle)
  • Different names, same construct (jangle)

19.2 Redundancy

  • Bainbridge’s work on measurement redundancy

19.3 Ad hoc measure rate

  • Prevalence of ad hoc measures and implications for trustworthiness

19.4 Disattenuated associations

  • Correcting for measurement error; implications when not done

19.5 Reliability as a prerequisite to replicability

  • Reliability “paradox”

19.6 Pseudo effects

  • Effects that arise from measurement artifacts rather than real phenomena

19.7 Mode alignment

  • Especially self-reported behavior
  • Does the mode of measurement match the construct being assessed?
