Muhtasari	Bayesian discriminant validity assessment evaluates whether two theoretically distinct latent constructs are empirically separable, using posterior distributions and credible intervals rather than single-point null-hypothesis tests. It is applied within Bayesian confirmatory factor analysis or via the Bayesian heterotrait-monotrait ratio (HTMTb) to determine whether constructs measuring different traits are sufficiently differentiated.	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.
