A content validity analysis is needed to reassess the relationships between the diagnostic criteria and the items that operationalize them.

A qualitative content validity analysis was carried out for all items employed by the 17 instruments that claim to measure either construct by their criteria in English. In all but one instrument, the operationalizations did not include all criterion components. There were two main reasons found for this: the components had simply been left out or had been alternatively modified into other components.

The conclusion provides practical recommendations that researchers can apply to improve the content validity of their measurement.
