For content validation, the minimum acceptable number of experts is two.
“It can be concurred that for content validation, the minimum acceptable expert number is two, however most of recommendations propose a minimum of six experts.”

The relevance of an assessment tool has been frequently used to measure content validity.
“Despite the two aspects of content validity (i.e., relevant and representativeness of an assessment tool), the relevant of an assessment tool that was advocated by Davis (5) has been frequently used to measure the content validity (6, 7).”

The content validity index (CVI) was computed as the mean CVR across all retained items, with CVI ≥ 0.80 set as the threshold for overall framework validity.
“The content validity index (CVI) was computed as the mean CVR across all retained items, with CVI ≥ 0.80 set as the threshold for overall framework validity [38].”
From Toward Sustainable AI Literacy in Higher Education: A Delphi–AHP Approach to Identifying Key Components of AI/Data Extracurricular Programs (2026) · cites this paper as [38]
After revisions, all 30 items met the CVR threshold in a re-verification round, with CVI = 0.84, exceeding Davis's threshold of 0.80.
“After these revisions, all 30 items met the CVR threshold in a re-verification round (CVI = 0.84, exceeding Davis's [38] threshold of 0.80).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
