A test that claim to measure a construct must have validity to be considered strong. Validity refers to the degree to which a test actually measures what it claims to measure. In this case, if the children who perform the best on the test are actually the cleverest, the test would have construct validity. Temporal stability refers to consistency over time, interrater reliability refers to consistency across different raters or observers, and benefits-to-risk ratio is not relevant to this situation.
