Steps to establish an instruments validity
A high tech computer company asks me to validate a wrist mounted device to measure exercise energy expenditure. So the individual exhales one breath into the top of the instrument while exercising. The device's electronic components and microproccor analyze expired air to compute oxygen consumption and energy expenditure.
How would I go about creating an outline of steps necessary to establish the instrument's validity?
