This book critically examines the historical and philosophical
foundations of construct validity theory (CVT), and how these have
and continue to inform and constrain the conceptualization of
validity and its application in research. CVT has had an immense
impact on how researchers in the behavioural sciences conceptualize
and approach their subject matter. Yet, there is equivocation
regarding the foundations of the CVT framework as well as
ambiguities concerning the nature of the "constructs" that are its
raison d'etre. The book is organized in terms of three major parts
that speak, respectively, to the historical, philosophical, and
pragmatic dimensions of CVT. The primary objective is to provide
researchers and students with a critical lens through which a
deeper understanding may be gained of both the utility and
limitations of CVT and the validation practices to which it has
given rise.
