working with.

He sees that none of the students rated low on selfesteem. He is excited about this, until he looks at another scale on
self-esteem that has high validity/reliability. He realizes that he has
not covered all the concepts that make up self-esteem on his scale.
His scale has:

B. Low Criterion Validity
C. Low Content Validity
