criterion related validity
B
construct validity
C
content validity
D
reliability
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The three methods of validity-criterion-related, content, and construct-should be used to provide validation support depending on the situation. These three general methods often overlap, and, depending on the situation, one or more may be appropriate.

Detailed explanation-2: -Comparing the test with an established measure is known as concurrent validity; testing it over a period of time is known as predictive validity.

Detailed explanation-3: -If the outcomes are very similar, the new test has high criterion validity.

Detailed explanation-4: -How are reliability and validity assessed? Reliability can be estimated by comparing different versions of the same measurement. Validity is harder to assess, but it can be estimated by comparing the results to other relevant data or theory.
