Describe how you would design an instrument to predict the success of graduates from a paralegal program 5 years after graduation.
What will be an ideal response?
Ans: Locate graduates from the program 5 years out who are working as paralegals and ask how well their employers rate their skills and preparedness. Correlate their scores on the entrance exam for the paralegal program with a value of 1 if the student is successfully working as a paralegal or 0 if they have less than satisfactory employment records. A high correlation indicates predictive validity.
