Statistical analysis: For the entire module, Lawshe's formula was used to calculate the Content Validity Ratio, CVR =(Ne-N/2)/(N/2), where Ne represents the total number of panelists/yoga experts who indicate a practice is ‘very essential’ or ‘extremely essential’ and N is the total number of experts. If more than 18 experts agreed about any item to be ‘very essential’ or ‘extremely essential’, then that item was included in final module. In this study for a panel of 27 experts the scale's CVR ≥0.37, which is considered satisfactory. The mean CVR across all items can serve as an indicator of the overall test content validity.
