Down
- 1. measure of a tests ability to reproduce the same results upon future tests
- 2. type of heuristic that illustrated by individuals comparing a judgment scenario to a schema that they have for that scenario and deciding if it fits their schema - e.g. librarians are quiet
- 4. type of validity that measures how closely a tests matches up with other tests - (SAT and ACT)
- 5. type of study typically used to figure out if a trait (like IQ) is more genetically based or environmentally influenced
