Without differential validity, a test may be valid for one group but not for another. This means that the test may have some level of validity for some individuals or groups, but not for others. Therefore, it cannot be considered completely invalid in all circumstances (choice A and B are incorrect). Differential validity refers to whether the test is valid for different subgroups of test-takers, and is not related to the test's legality (choice D). The presence or absence of differential validity does not impact a test's reliability (choice E is incorrect).
