Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Instrumentation threat refers to the possibility that changes in the measuring instrument affect the results. In this case, the survey is only offered in English, which may lead to response bias or participants being unable to accurately express their experiences and opinions in a language that is not their native tongue. This could lead to inaccurate or incomplete data, resulting in an instrumentation threat to validity.
