Jim's consistent score on the intelligence test one year apart indicates that the test has high test-retest reliability, meaning it produces consistent results over time. Choice B, high inter-rater agreement, would indicate that different raters come to the same conclusion when scoring the test, which is not relevant to this scenario. Choice C, internal consistency, refers to the consistency of results across items within the same test, which is not relevant to the test-retest scenario provided.
