Validity generalization refers to the extent to which a test that has been validated for one specific job or organization can be applied to other jobs or organizations. It seeks to establish the generalizability of test scores across different contexts. This concept is particularly useful for organizations that have multiple locations and want to use the same testing procedures across them for consistency and fairness.
