Criterion-Related Evidence
Captions available
The idea
Criterion-related evidence compares test scores with another measure, a criterion: predictive evidence, when the criterion comes later, and concurrent evidence, when it is measured at the same time.
In practice
College admission scores predicting first-year grades give predictive evidence.
Where people slip
Face validity, how a test looks to takers, is appearance, not a kind of validity evidence.
