E. Construct Validity.

Explanation:

Construct validity is mostly used in social sciences and psychology. It is mainly a device used almost exclusively in social sciences, psychology and education.

For example, you might design whether an educational program increases artistic ability amongst pre school children. Construct validity is a measure of whether your research actually measures artistic ability, a slightly abstract label.

Just like case above that has to deal Dr. Ross looking to examine if the certain indicators which tends to complete her romantic attraction measurement are truly related to one another and make for an accurate representation of the variable she is researching.
