A test that is generalizable has been shown to be valid in other contexts beyond the context in which it was developed, meaning that its results will hold true across different populations, settings, and situations. A practical method is a method that is easy to use and implement, but this does not necessarily mean that it is valid outside of its original context. Reliability refers to the consistency and precision of a test's results, but it does not address whether those results are generalizable. Invalid methods are not useful for measuring the construct they are intended to measure. Concurrent methods measure the same construct at the same time as another measure, but this does not necessarily mean they are generalizable.
