In this examined scholarly journal research article, the authors Morris, S. B., Daisley, R. L., Wheeler, M., & Boyer, P.; analyzes the related validity criterion used in individual assessment. They defined individual assessments as a process used in selecting employees, and involving the utilization of different assessment methods, administered on each candidate interviewed, and using such assessment to evaluate, judge, and determine a candidate’s overall suitability for a position. The authors determined that the recommendations of the assessor are reliable enough to predict work performances; however, they mutually agree that the results must be characterized, explained and interpreted in a cautious manner, due to the fact that a relative small number of studies have been conducted and to take into consideration the possibilities of publication biases.

The authors, Ones, D. S., Dilchert, S., Viswesvaran, C., & Judge, T. A. in this scholarly journal research article examined the idea of using personality tests for employees’ selection purposes. They used various meta-analyses including those used by Morgeson et al. (2007), such as the optimum and unit-weighted different correlations among the Big Five personality dimensions and behaviors in organizations, including job performance; (b) generalized variable relationships of Conscientiousness and its surfaces such as dependability and cautiousness achievement orientation; (c) the validity of compound personality measures; and (d) the validity of incremental personality measures versus cognitive ability. The authors concluded that it is counterproductive to write off all the areas of expertise of individual differences as it relates to personality with reference to staff selection and organizational decision making for the science and practice of I-O psychology.

The authors addressed the major quantitative and qualitative psychometric guidelines for managerial/directional and organizational deliberation and consultation assessment as well as evaluation instruments. They also reviewed a framework of several current sampling questions as well as possible implications of the instrument used by practitioners and suggested that further research and assessments that focuses on compliance, performance, design, adequacy, efficiency, management, intervention, and impact should be conducted.
