Answer:

regression threat

Explanation:

Internal validity is a measure of how the conditions of an experiment makes a difference and whether there is enough evidence to come to a vivid conclusion. There are several threats to internal validity, which include, history, testing, instrumentation, subject selection, selection maturity, and regression. Regression threat is also called regression to the mean. The main cause of this threat is selecting subjects based on extreme scores or characteristics, as the case may be in the example. Jared selected participants with extreme scores.
