Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Criterion-related validity measures how well a test or assessment tool predicts an individual's performance in a given area, such as their job performance as evaluated in a performance review. Therefore, choice A is the most appropriate answer. Content validity refers to the extent to which a test measures the intended construct, while construct validity refers to the degree to which a test measures the theoretical construct it is intended to measure. Cross-validation refers to the process of using different data sets to confirm the validity of a test or assessment tool. While these are all important concepts in testing and assessment, they do not directly relate to the extent to which performance on a test predicts performance in a specific domain, making A the best choice.
