Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": Criterion-related validation.

Explanation:

Criterion-related validation is a reliability test that measures certain inputs in an attempt of predicting the performance of other groups of individuals who will be measured under the same criteria. The measure obtained in the first evaluation is called the predictor variable or estimator. Intelligence Quotient (IQ) tests are typical examples of the use of criterion-related validation methods.
