Page 255. Factual. Concurrent validity is based on giving existing employees a criterion predictor (such as an aptitude test) and correlating the scores with job performance. To determine whether a criterion predictor actually predicts competent performance, the criterion predictor is given to all job applicants and then at a later stage this is correlated with job performance. This latter process determines the predictive validity.
