The predictive method for establishing evidence of validity involves measuring the criterion variable at a later point in time, after the test has been administered. Therefore, a time interval must elapse between the test administration and the criterion measurement. The other options, concurrent and test-retest methods, do not involve a time interval between the test administration and criterion measurement, and content validity does not require a criterion measurement.
