Answer: C. the measurement validity of the ratings

Explanation:

The MEASUREMENT VALIDITY of a tool refers to the degree to which the tool measures that which it purports to measure.

In wondering if it was really "teaching effectiveness" that was being measured by the rating as opposed to his likeability, Professor Morgan was questioning whether the ratings purporting to measure teaching effectiveness were really doing so.
