Solution Steps

To determine if a test is a "good" measurement tool, we need to consider the key factors that are commonly accepted in the field of psychometrics. These factors typically include validity, reliability, and standardization.

Solution Approach
  1. Identify the key factors that are universally recognized as important for a good measurement tool.
  2. Compare the given options to see which one includes these key factors.
Step 1: Identify Key Factors

To determine if a test is a "good" measurement tool, we consider the following key factors:

  • \( \text{Validity} \)
  • \( \text{Reliability} \)
  • \( \text{Standardization} \)
Step 2: Analyze Options

We analyze the provided options to see which one includes all three key factors:

  1. \( \{\text{Standardization}, \text{Reliability}, \text{Validity}\} \)
  2. \( \{\text{Reliability}, \text{Standardization}, \text{Repeatability}\} \)
  3. \( \{\text{Validity}, \text{Reliability}, \text{Prediction}\} \)
  4. \( \{\text{Prediction}, \text{Standardization}, \text{Reliability}\} \)
Step 3: Determine the Correct Option

Upon comparison, we find that the first option \( \{\text{Standardization}, \text{Reliability}, \text{Validity}\} \) contains all three key factors, making it the correct choice.

Final Answer

The answer is \( \boxed{A} \).

Which statement describes the muscle response at a stimulation interval of 120 ms (about 8 stimuli per second)? The muscle was only partially relaxed before each stimulus, and the contractions generated more force than individual twitches. The muscle was only partially relaxed before each stimulus, and each contraction generated the same force as an individual twitch. The muscle had time to completely relax before each stimulus, and each twitch generated the same force. The muscle was in the process of contracting when each stimulus arrived, and the contractions generated more force than individual twitches.
