Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Face validity refers to whether or not the purpose behind the test questions can be guessed. It is a measure of how well a test appears to measure what it is intended to measure. It does not necessarily indicate the accuracy of the test in predicting behavior or the validity of the responses given by the test-taker.
