I. INTRODUCTION
A. Background of The Paper
In research methodology there are two most important and
fundamental features in the evaluation of any measurement
instrument for a good research. It is also known as reliability and
validity. These are appropriate concepts for introducing a
remarkable setting in research. Reliability is referred to the stability
of findings, whereas validity is represented the truthfulness of
findings. Without assessing reliability and validity of the research, it
will be difficult to describe for the effects of measurement errors on
theoretical relationships that are being measured. The purpose of this
research is to discuss the validity and reliability of measurement
instruments. By using various types of methods to collect data for
obtaining true information, a researcher can enhance the validity and
reliability to collect the data.
III. CONCLUSION
In this paper, the writer explain about validity and reliability as a
significant research instrument tool were reviewed. To perform a good
research validity and reliability tests are needed to take very carefully.
As discussed, there are four main validity test of the questionnaire
namely; face validity, content validity, construct validity and criterion
validity. We have also included the threat to reliability andvalidity when
a researcher tries to do a good research.
