This transmutability of the validation matrix argues for the comparisons within the heteromethod block as the most generally relevant validation data, and illustrates the potential interchangeability of trait and method components.

The present interpretation of construct validity is not "official" and deals with some areas where the Committee would probably not be unanimous, but the present writers are solely responsible for this attempt to explain the concept and elaborate its implications.

Overall, a high degree of consistency was found among these measures, though the lower consistency of the subjects' questionnaire illustrated the problems of validity with self-assessment.

Age differences were found most often on the chance and powerful others control dimensions, suggesting that the elderly acknowledge the importance of external sources of control and at the same time preserve their sense of internal control.

As in previous studies, a story recall test was the strongest predictor of reported memory performance; and despite a universal belief among elderly adults that their memory had deteriorated with age, very few of them felt that they were at all handicapped by forgetfulness in everyday life.

A multiple factor instrument was designed to represent a multidimensional construct of metamemory, with young adults evincing higher levels of knowledge regarding the first three of these dimensions, and more internality on the fourth, than older adults.

Canonical correlations indicated that the memory performance scores were not related to the affective measures nor to the scales of self-assessed memory ability, suggesting that investigations of memory performance which rely onSelf-assessment should also measure affective status.

The analyses indicated that there are at least two higher-order factors in the MIA, and that the two factor solution has potential for resolving conflicting results in the literature regarding age differences in both metamemory and metAMemory/memory performance relationships.
