The blank in the sentence "when _________-related validity is low, the things measured in a selection test are not actually done on the job" is best filled with "content." Content-related validity (content validity) refers to the extent to which the content of the test items represents the actual job content. When content-related validity is low, it means that the test is not measuring what is truly done on the job, so the things measured in the selection test do not correspond to the actual job tasks and duties.
In sum, low content validity implies that the selection test does not reflect the real work that the job requires, and therefore is a poor predictor of job performance.
