“…Some researchers (e.g., Leko, 2014) have emphasized the value of qualitative methods in social validity assessments, including more subjective social validity assessment methods such as interviews, focus groups, surveys, and rating scales. Yet, other researchers (e.g., Ledford et al, 2016) have argued for the need for more objective and psychometrically sound social validity assessments such as normative comparisons and measures of maintenance or sustained use of an intervention (see Barton, Meadan-Kaplansky, & Ledford, 2018, for a brief review). Considerations for the measurement of social validity in interventions with culturally and linguistically diverse populations may be especially critical as these groups may benefit from different procedures to assess social validity based on language (e.g., use of interpreters) and cultural preference (e.g., involving a peer assessor rather than a researcher).…”
