When assessing a new change of direction test with a team of volleyball players, the
scores are found to have a high correlation with the T-test. This represents what type
of validity?
a. discriminant validity
b. face validity
c. concurrent validity

, c. concurrent validity
Construct validity is the ability of a test to represent the underlying
construct
Face validity is the appearance to the athlete and other casual observers
that the test measures what it is purported to measure
Content validity is the assessment by experts that the testing covers all
relevant subtopics or component abilities in appropriate proportions
Criterion-referenced validity is the extent to which test scores are
associated with some other measure of the same ability. There are three
types of criterion-referenced validity: concurrent, predictive, and
discriminant.
Concurrent validity is the extent to which test scores
are associated with those of other accepted tests that measure the same
ability.
Convergent validity is evidenced by high positive correlation between
results of the test being assessed and those of the recognized measure of
the construct
Discriminant validity is the ability of a test to distin-guish between two
different constructs and is evidenced by a low correlation between the
results of the test and those of tests of a different construct
Predictive validity is the extent to which the test score corresponds with
future behavior or performance.
What type of goal is being set when an athlete's performance is compared with
others or winning?
a. mastery
b. process
c. outcome
