Explanation
★Ensuring the task is completed and the instructions are clear and specific concerns validity, so that is the answer.
★Validity means a test truly measures what it is intended to measure.
★Clear, specific instructions and a properly completed exercise ensure the task really tests the intended skill.
★So making the instructions exact protects the validity of the evaluation.
★Practicality is about ease and feasibility of use, not about measuring the right thing.
★Reliability and consistency are about giving the same result on repetition, so clear instructions serve validity.
