## Overview

reliability-validity-testing is the applied companion to psychometrics: the concrete procedures for
demonstrating that a measure is consistent (reliability) and measures what it claims (validity).
It covers designing reliability studies, choosing agreement coefficients, gathering validity
evidence, and interpreting the numbers — including what to do when they're disappointing.

Use this when you need to evaluate or defend a measurement instrument; use psychometrics for
building scales and latent-variable modeling.

## When to use

- Planning a test-retest reliability study: interval, sample size, ICC model choice.
- Inter-rater agreement: training raters, choosing kappa vs ICC vs percent agreement.
