Construct validity involves the desire to measure or infer the presence of abstract characteristics for which no empirical validation seems possible. Predictive or pragmatic validity refers to the degree to which a score on a test predicts scores on other, criterion or outcome variables.

Reliability measures the consistency and stability of test scores over time and across different conditions.
