Hi Brian: That appears to be criterion-related validity: Criterion-related validity compares a subject's scores on a predictive measure with some other criterion score. For example, to determine the validity of using an accounting test to make hiring decisions, an employer would correlate scores on the test with supervisory ratings of accountants' job performances. There are two approaches to determining criterion-related validity: concurrent and predictive. See Smither: Psychology of Work & Human Performance Regards, Rossi A.
