generalizable

Step-by-step explanation:

Generalizability is the standard to which the efficacy of a selection method founded in one context continues to other contexts such as various situations, different samples of people, and varying time periods. validity is necessary but not sufficient for generalizability

A generalizable method employs not only the stipulations in which the method was basically developed—job, organization, people, time, and so on. It also refers to other businesses, jobs, candidates, and so on. In other words, a generalizable method is a preferred method that was proved in one context and is valid in other contexts.
