The Construct Validity of the Leisure Activities Questionnaire and of the Paragraphs about Leisure.
Tinsley, Howard E. A.; Kass, Richard A.
Educational and Psychological Measurement, v40 n1 p219-26 Spr 1980

The two procedures revealed a high degree of convergent and discriminant validity for the two instruments. (Author/BW)
