Answer:

The correct answer is B. Validity

Step-by-step explanation:

VALIDITY is an indication of how sound your research is. More specifically, validity applies to both the design and the methods of your research and validity in data collection means that your findings truly represent the phenomenon you are claiming to measure.

Also, valid claims are solid claims.

Answer:

B. Validity

Step-by-step explanation:

The validity of a test deals with it measuring the exact things it has been designed to measure or check. The validity of a test depends on how reliable the test is and the corresponding degree of it being repeated.

In this case the test for college students alone took place across the country,at the same time with the same instructions which corresponds to it being able to be repeated and how reliable it is.
