Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Content validity is sometimes called face validity because it refers to the extent to which a measure appears, on the surface, to measure what it is supposed to measure. Option B is incorrect because content validity is not necessarily the most difficult type of validity to establish; this can vary depending on the context and the measurement tool. Option C is partially correct, as content validity is indeed important for scientific progress but not necessarily at the heart of it. Option D is incorrect because option A is true, but option B is not necessarily true. Option E is incorrect because option C is only partially true.
