Calibrate construct and measurement validity: Beautiful Digital Experiences Hypothesis Registry
RFR-BA0997FF — Calibrate construct and measurement validity: Beautiful Digital Experiences Hypothesis Registry
Research opportunity
Calibrate construct and measurement validity for the claims or recommendations in “Beautiful Digital Experiences Hypothesis Registry.”
Background
The originating artifact is accepted by the repository publishing inventory with status “active.” Its Status vocabulary section provides the immediate evidence boundary.
Evidence trace
- Origin document: content/projects/beautiful-digital-experiences/hypothesis-registry/beautiful-digital-experiences-hypothesis-registry-v0-1.md
- Section:
Status vocabulary - Specific assumption challenged: The source's treatment in “Status vocabulary” is sufficiently supported for its intended scope.
- Supporting evidence excerpt: “- Initialized: claim is specified but not adequately tested. - Provisional support: evidence bears on the predicted mechanism, with important transfer limits. - Mixed: supporting and contradicting evidence or boundary reversals are known. - Narrowed: the original form was too broad and a scoped revision is active. - R…”
- 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-HYREG-BDE-001-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.
