Validity generalization allows greater latitude that situation specificity does.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Validity generalization refers to the degree to which a test's validity evidence can be generalized to different situations, while situation specificity refers to the degree to which a test's validity evidence is specific to the situation in which the test was administered. Validity generalization, therefore, allows for greater flexibility and applicability of a test's validity evidence across different contexts.
