Ecological validity refers to the extent to which research findings or experimental results can be generalized to real-world settings. It concerns how well the conditions and contexts of a study reflect the complexities and nuances of everyday life. In other words, a study with high ecological validity means that the behaviors, interactions, or responses observed in an experiment are likely to occur in real-world scenarios.
