Question 61 / 1 pointWhich of the following best describes the reliability of a test?A] The results must be obtained through a method that appropriately tests what it should.B] The results must be representative of what the hypothesis is intending to test.C] The results must be the same as long as the input is the same.D] The results must be resistant to different inputs, and not change even if the input does.
Hide FeedbackCorrect! A reliable test's results must be consistent if the input is consistent. For example, a scale shouldshow the same weight if you measure yourself repeatedly every minute. The reliability of a test is oftenshown by having the same individual repeat the test and achieve the same score or result.
