face validity  

Definición

  • Face validity is a test of internal validity. As the name implies, it asks a very simple question: “On the face of things, do the investigators reach the correct conclusions?” It requires investigators to step outside of their current research context and assess their observations from a commonsense perspective. [Source: Encyclopedia of Research Design; Face Validity]
