Final answer:
The types of validity that involve the assessment of the representation of the entire content or the individual items within an instrument are Content Validity and Item Validity.
So, the correct answer is A) Content validity and D) Item validity.
Step-by-step explanation:
Content Validity and Item Validity are the types of validity that assess the representation of the entire content or the individual items within an instrument. Content Validity assesses whether a test represents all aspects of the construct it is intended to measure. This means the test or instrument fully covers the construct it's supposed to assess, ensuring that all important content areas are included. Item Validity, while not always listed as a separate category of validity, refers to whether individual test items are relevant and representative of the construct for which the test is designed.
Other types mentioned, such as criterion-related, predictive, and concurrent validity are concerned with how well one measure can predict or correlate with an outcome or another measure, rather than content representation.
So, the correct answer is A) Content validity and D) Item validity.
