Abstract The use of Internet to aid research practice has become more popular in the recent years. In fact, some believe that online data collection may revolutionize many disciplines by allowing for easier data collection, larger samples, and therefore more representative data. However, scholars are skeptical of its usability as well as its practical value. Thus the accuracy and consistency of online data gathering is a significant aspect of research methodology which is known as validity and reliability. Often new researchers are confused with selection and conducting of proper validity type to test their research instrument (questionnaire/survey). This paper explores and describes the validity and reliability of online data gathering and also discusses various forms of validity and reliability tests. The paper also examines the traditional model of reliability and validation of data. Evaluation of online resource is another topic which deal with how online resource is been managed by the operators. We thereby come up with principles and elements that can be used to evaluating data to ascertain the possibility of the data being reliable and valid. The paper briefly outline the processes used traditionally and then bring out how these principles can be presented in the new culture. By its very nature, the Internet appears to be a very promising medium for researchers. As a vehicle for data collection, it promises increased sample size, greater sample diversity, easier access and convenience, lower costs and time investment, and many other appealing features. The use of Internet to aid research practice has become more popular in the recent years. In fact, some believe that Internet surveying and electronic data collection may revolutionize many disciplines by allowing for easier data collection, larger samples, and therefore more representative data. However, others are skeptical of its usability as well as its practical value. The validity and reliability of the scales used in research are important factors that enable the research to yield healthy results. For this reason, it is useful to understand how the reliability and validity of the scales are measured correctly by researchers.
