In your unit studies, you read about two approaches or models of validity-trinitarian and unitary. In some ways, these two models are competing views of gathering evidence for a test's validity. In other ways, the two approaches have an overlap of elements.
For this discussion:

Identify at least one advantage and disadvantage of each model.
Decide which model appears to be the most valid for determining validity of a test.
Explain your decision in terms of the implications for decision making about a test's validity.
