TLDR
The results of the 3 studies provide preliminary support for the revised VMIQ-2 as a psychometrically valid questionnaire.Abstract:
The purpose of this research was to amend the Vividness of Movement Imagery Questionnaire (VMIQ; Isaac, Marks, & Russell, 1986) in line with contemporary imagery modality and perspective conceptualizations, and to test the validity of the amended questionnaire (i.e., the VMIQ-2). Study 1 had 351 athletes complete the 3-factor (internal visual imagery, external visual imagery, and kinesthetic imagery) 24-item VMIQ-2. Following single-factor confirmatory factor analyses and item deletion, a 12-item version was subject to correlated traits / correlated uniqueness (CTCU) analysis. An acceptable fit was revealed. Study 2 used a different sample of 355 athletes. The CTCU analysis confirmed the factorial validity of the 12-item VMIQ-2. In Study 3, the concurrent and construct validity of the VMIQ-2 was supported. Taken together, the results of the 3 studies provide preliminary support for the revised VMIQ-2 as a psychometrically valid questionnaire.read more

Mental Paper Folding Revisited: The Involvement of Visual Action Imagery
Stephan F. Dahm,Clemens Draxler +1 more
TL;DR: In this article , the authors investigated whether solving mental paper folding tasks involves action imagery and concluded that participants predominantly used action imagery as a task-solving strategy rather than for abstract problem solving.

The Effect of Simulating Climbing Movements on Rock Memory and Exploratory Movement in Rock Climbing
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors investigated the effect of simulated action during rock climbing route finding on memory and exploratory movement, and concluded that simulative body action during route finding facilitated motor imagery and spatial information processing for subsequent climbing involving exploratory movements.

Self-report mental imagery and social desirable responding
TL;DR: The relationship between scores on self-report imagery questionnaires and sub-types of socially desirable responding was investigated across five papers as mentioned in this paper, and the magnitude of correlations between imagery scales and egoism was generally in the r=.20 to.35 range and sometimes exceeded a r=.25 criterion for acceptability set by McKelvie (1994).

Cutoff criteria for fit indexes in covariance structure analysis : Conventional criteria versus new alternatives
Li-tze Hu,Peter M. Bentler +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the adequacy of the conventional cutoff criteria and several new alternatives for various fit indexes used to evaluate model fit in practice were examined, and the results suggest that, for the ML method, a cutoff value close to.95 for TLI, BL89, CFI, RNI, and G...

Comparative fit indexes in structural models
TL;DR: A new coefficient is proposed to summarize the relative reduction in the noncentrality parameters of two nested models and two estimators of the coefficient yield new normed (CFI) and nonnormed (FI) fit indexes.

Evaluating Goodness-of-Fit Indexes for Testing Measurement Invariance
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the change in the goodness-of-fit index (GFI) when cross-group constraints are imposed on a measurement model and found that the change was independent of both model complexity and sample size.

Construct validity in psychological tests.

TL;DR: The present interpretation of construct validity is not "official" and deals with some areas where the Committee would probably not be unanimous, but the present writers are solely responsible for this attempt to explain the concept and elaborate its implications.
