Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Validity coefficient is the correlation coefficient between the test scores and a criterion measure. In this case, the higher the value of the validity coefficient, the stronger the relationship between performance on the test and performance on the criterion measure. Therefore, the test with the higher validity coefficient (option B) is the best choice. Options A, C, and D have lower validity coefficients or coefficients of determination, which indicate weaker relationships between the test scores and criterion measures.
