Zusammenfassung	Longitudinal nomological validity evaluates whether a construct's theoretically predicted relationships with other constructs hold consistently across multiple measurement occasions. It extends the nomological network framework of Cronbach and Meehl (1955) to longitudinal designs, testing whether a scale behaves as theory demands not only at a single time point but over time.	Convergent validity is the degree to which multiple indicators that are theoretically expected to measure the same construct actually correlate with one another. It is one of the two complementary forms of construct validity identified by Campbell and Fiske (1959) and is now routinely assessed via factor loadings and the Average Variance Extracted (AVE) statistic in SEM-based scale validation.
