Application of meta-summary to derive a measurement instrument from the literature: a method exemplar.
CONCLUSION: Without sufficient methodological rigour, practitioners and researchers must speculate about the content validity of newly derived instruments. Meta-summary provides a useful approach to developing scales from the literature.
IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE: The method detailed here is of use when deriving measurement instruments from the literature. It provides a systematic and replicable strategy that assures construct validity.
