Q

External reliability

A

-Test-retest reliability
(tester en gruppe på ulike tidspunkter, forventes likt resultat ish)

-Parallel forms of reliability
(to ulike tester som måler samme konstrukt, forventes å ha like resultater hvis reliabel)

Q

Internal reliability

A

-Cronbach’s coefficient alpha
(statistisk analyse som tester om data er internt konsistente. Alpha over 0.7 = god intern concistency)

-Split-half method
(data delt i to og undersøkes om skårer er nogenlunde like)

-Kuder-Richardson 20
(spess form for Cronbachs Alpha for dikotone data/spørsmål)

Q

The ideal validation of a selection processes. What is it?

A

Criterion related validity

  • Criterion-related validity is the strength of the relationship (correlation) between the predictor and the criterion/work performance (Task performance, citizenship performance and counterproductive work behaviour).
  • validitetskoeffisient = korrelasjon mellom prediktor og kriterion

Q

To measure criterion related validity: Predictive validity designs (follow-up design) are more rigorous than _________ _________ _______, but their implementation usually presents several practical problems.

A

concurrent validity designs

  • Jobbanalyse finner kriterier, tester allerede ansatte istede for å teste de man undersøkte

Q

3 source of error when estimating
the validity of selection procedures

A
  1. Sampling error
    (ofte lite sample 50-150, uteliggere)
  2. Poor measurement precision
    (true score plus error, mål lite reliabelt? isåfal minskes
    korrelasjon mellom prediktor og kriterion)
  3. Restricted range of scores(urepresentativt)
    Sample used in validation is a selected sample, generaliseres til hele søkergruppe (unselected sample), kan få lavere korrelasjon enn det egentlig er mellom prediktor og kriterion

2 important factors determining cost-effectiveness?

A

Financial utility

  1. the selection ratio, i.e. number of jobs/number of candidates
  2. the financial benefit of improved job performance.
