4.6 VALIDITY Al'o'DRELIABILITY The instrwnents need to be adequately tested for their reliability and validity to ensure that the instrument is one that results in measures that are relevant, accurate,_ unbiased, sensitive and efficient After the instrwnent was developed, it was tested for its validity and reliability before the actual data collection was done. 4.6.1 CONTENT VALIDITY This refers to how accurately the questions tend to elicit the information sought The questionnaires were sent to different experts in the field under study to review and analyze all items, to see ifthey adequately represent the content universe. The instrument was given to different members ofthe multidisciplinary team including the orthopedic surgeon, orthopedic nurse, specialist, physiotherapist, occupation therapist and social workers from local higher education institutions. These members were requested to examine the instrument and to add items which they deemed necessary and to delete those deemed irrelevant These members and supervisors agreed that the instrument contained questions pertaining to community based rehabilitation. The instrument was also formulated from an extensive literature review. 4.6.2 FACE VALIDITY Face validity indicated whether the instrument appeared to be measuring what it purposed to measure. It was found to be present because all questions in the instrument appeared to focus on the selected topic ofcommunity based rehabilitation ofthe amputees. 4.6.3 EXTERNAL VALIDITY In this study external validity was ensured because the researcher provided a detailed description so that someone other than the researcher could determine whether the findings of the study were applicable in other settings or contexts where the method of data collection was precisely and thoroughly reported (Brink, 1996:125). 37
