▲ 3 r/psychometrics
I recently developed a scale for assessing a psychological construct as part of my research. Now the scale has been finalised and preliminary structural assessment has been done but I feel that the initial construct that I set out to measure is somewhat different from what the scale is actually measuring. Is it okay to change the name of the scale and its construct definition before sending it out to a journal for publication? Pros and cons of changing/not changing??
