Construct Assessment Review and Critique Guidelines
More than 6 references needed
You will select a construct based on non-adherence to medication. A brief review of the literature on the assessment of that construct is needed. You will then select one existing survey measure (i.e., scale) or quantitively method of your chosen construct (or related construct) and critique this measure based on the assessment principles based on validity and reliability any information to prove it’s a useful instrument when measuring non adherence to medications.
Remember, you are not writing a review of literature on the construct itself, but a review of how the construct has been measured. For example, you should detail all existing scales/ instruments
on the construct, and you can also review how qualitative studies measured this via interviews. The product you will submit will thus have two parts:
Part I: A brief (3-5 pages) review of the literature on the assessment on non-adherence to medication construct
– Please document, to the extent that it exists in the literature, the history of the assessment of the construct; any prominent scales or methods that have been/are still being used to assess the construct (you don’t have to be comprehensive, but should address at least three if that many exist); and (where possible) any published validation (validity and reliability) information on these scales or methods.
Part II: A critique of one existing survey measure of the chosen construct that was included among the measures reviewed in Part I.
– If possible, you should find the original measure as designed by its author(s), including its original instructions, question wording, question order, and response options. You may find the original measure in a manual, published article, or even simply on a (reliable) website.
Specifically, your critique should address how well it adheres/doesn’t adhere to each of you may include in your critique any additional principles we learned about in class that you feel are relevant to the
selected measure.
