The U. S. News and World Report is assessing the reliability of its measure of academic reputation used in its annual ranking of colleges and universities. To do so, it administers the same questions on academic reputation to its sample of academic administrators in March and again in June. If in the U. S. News and World Report’s measurement of academic reputation, it determined using a parallel forms test that the questions chosen demonstrated a poor ability to categorize institutions, the researcher would be concerned about .

Equivalence

Explanation:

The measure of Equivalence reliability is aimed at evaluation the consistency of two or more set of forms or question. When adopting the parallel forms reliability model, Here, the questions are different but similar, more explicitly, the difficulty level and knowledge capability required to tackle the questions is the same for the different forms or question set but the questions set administered to each group ai different. This way we are utilizing the parallel form of Equivalence reliability to measure if the test administered to the first group is consistent with that of the other. In the scenario above, questions chosen demonstrated a poor ability to categorize institutions, then there is a problem with Equivalence reliability of the test.

aa

explanation:

literally the answer is aa. not kidding. aa is a group.
