Discriminant validity refers to the degree to which a measure is different from other measures that it should not be related to. Therefore, checking whether the new measure is different from measures from which it should, indeed, be different provides an assessment of discriminant validity. Content validity refers to the degree to which a measure covers all aspects of the construct being measured. Face validity refers to the degree to which a measure appears to be measuring what it is intended to measure. Concurrent validity refers to the degree to which a measure is related to a previously validated measure of the same construct assessed at the same time.
