Which one of the following mistakes have the teachers definitely made here? a. Language arts achievement tests have no predictive validity for performance in writing a year later. b. The test's construct validity is the validity of most concern here, but it has not been determined. c. The teachers have no clear rationale for choosing their cutoff score. d.
