Answer:

Validity

Explanation:

In research, the term validity refers to the fact that you are actually measuring what you are claiming to be measuring. In other words, your study is valid if it measures what you want to actually measure.

In this example, Dr. Valencia is conducting a study examining whether narcissistic people have poorer social interactions. However, she is concerned whether her scale will really measure narcissism or if it will measure some other concept. In other words, <u>she is worried that her scale is actually measuring what it claims to be measuring. </u>Thus, she is concerned about the scale's validity.

What are non examples of astronomy? !
bezimeni [28]
<span>Astronomy is looking at stars or planets or phenomenons in the night sky. Just going outside on a clear night and looking at the stars is basic astronomy. If you want to relly become involved, the next thing to do would be to get a book about astronomy, showing where certain stars and constellations are, and then you should get a pair of binoculars. A set of 10 x 50s are good to start with it. this is not what the person asked. an example of astronomy is like the big bang, that created the universe. pretty much anything to do with the universe, stars and planets is astronomy.</span>
