Question

in assessing personality we look at various aspects of a \personality test.\ which of the following looks at if the test is really measuring what we intend it to measure?

○ norms

○ validity

○ reliability

○ standardization

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Norms: Refer to the typical scores of a group, not about measuring intended constructs.
• Validity: Defined as the extent a test measures what it's intended to measure, matching the question.
• Reliability: Concerns consistency of results, not what is measured.
• Standardization: Involves uniform test administration, not about measurement of intended constructs.

Answer:

B. Validity
