Correct option is C
The concept of generalizing the results of a study beyond the specific research context is directly related to "external validity." External validity refers to the extent to which the findings of a study can be generalized to other settings, populations, and times. It assesses the applicability of the research results to real-world scenarios. Measurement validity concerns the accuracy of the measurement tools, internal validity refers to the correctness of the study's design within its context, and ecological validity is a form of external validity that focuses specifically on the naturalness of the setting. Hence, the correct answer is (c) External validity.
