Answer:

example of construct validity

Explanation:

Construct validity refers to how accurate a study can measure / provide data about the things it claim in the initial description. From the case above, Tara's study claim that it measure<em> 'how social college students are with friends at lunch compared to at dinner' . </em>

In order to measure this, Tara only use 'duration of eye contact' as an indicator of measure it.

The thing is, Social interaction is done with many type of actions, including spoken communication, skin contact, laughter, opened body language ,etc. Only using eye contact will cut off the people who rely their socialization process on these other actions. Because of this, we can say that this study is lacking in validity.
