Why is population validity especially problematic for anderson and dill (2000)'s study 2? the sample varied too much. the internal validity was too low to generalize results to the population. the participants were all undergraduate students. the sample was too small?

Population validity is a sort of outside validity which portrays how well the sample utilized can be extrapolated to a populace all in all. Experienced researchers guarantee that their sample groups are as representative as could be expected under the circumstances, endeavoring to utilize random choice as opposed to convenience sampling.
