This is a question from florida national university nursing program the options of question were
A. Construct validity B. Face validity C. Content validity D. Criterion validity
By looking at options as well s question we know salivary cotinine levels is not tested for validating outer appearances like face or construct and gold standard is not a standard for content validity so eliminating other options we are left with opton
D. Criterion validity which is the correct answer
