Answer:

criterion validity

Explanation:

Based on the scenario being described within the question it can be said that they were concerned that it would lack criterion validity. This type of validity explains the extent in which the specific measured aspect of a test is related to another specific outcome. Which is why they are afraid that it lacks criterion validity since there was almost no correlation found between the scores.
