Calibrate construct and measurement validity: Peripheral Chromatic Interface Cues
RFR-052665BF — Calibrate construct and measurement validity: Peripheral Chromatic Interface Cues
Research opportunity
Calibrate construct and measurement validity for the claims or recommendations in “Peripheral Chromatic Interface Cues.”
Background
The originating artifact is accepted by the repository publishing inventory with status “model-simulation-complete-gaze-study-pending.” Its Work completed section provides the immediate evidence boundary.
Evidence trace
- Origin document: content/projects/itten-color-contrasts/experiment-report/EX-ITTEN-007-peripheral-chromatic-cues.md
- Section:
Work completed - Specific assumption challenged: The source's treatment in “Work completed” is sufficiently supported for its intended scope.
- Supporting evidence excerpt: “A proxy crossed eccentricity 0/5/10/20/30° , size .1/.25/.5/1/2° , and four chroma levels (100 conditions). It estimated the minimum tested size passing an arbitrary sensitivity criterion.”
- Reason this opportunity exists: Whether the document's operational measures isolate the intended construct rather than a correlated proxy or decision strategy.
Unknowns
- Whether the document's operational measures isolate the intended construct rather than a correlated proxy or decision strategy.
Dependencies
- None; this is foundational work.
Suggested REP and methodology
- Suggested REP:
REP-EX-ITTEN-007-MEASUREMENT - Methodology: Define the construct, compare convergent and discriminant measures, estimate reliability, test measurement invariance, and publish calibration data.
- Expected outputs: Construct definition, measurement protocol, reliability study, calibration dataset, and validity report.
- Success criteria: Measures meet declared reliability and validity thresholds across the principal populations and contexts.
- Recommended agent:
measurement-research-agent - Estimated effort: Medium
- Expected knowledge gained: Whether the document's operational measures isolate the intended construct rather than a correlated proxy or decision strategy.
