Does IQ Really Predict Job Performance?
IQ has played a prominent part in developmental and adult psychology for decades. In the absence of a clear theoretical model of internal cognitive functions, however, construct validity for IQ tests has always been difficult to establish. Test validity, therefore, has always been indirect, by correlating individual differences in test scores with what are assumed to be other criteria of intell...
متن کاملDoes Union Membership Really Reduce Job Satisfaction?
We investigate the effect of union membership on job satisfaction. Whilst it is common to study the effects of union status on satisfaction treating individual membership as given, in this paper, we account for the endogenous selection induced by the sorting of workers into unionised jobs. Using linked employer-employee data from the 1998 British Workplace Employee Relations Survey, we address ...
متن کاملAutomatic human utility evaluation of ASR systems: does WER really predict performance?
We propose an alternative evaluation metric to Word Error Rate (WER) for the decision audit task of meeting recordings, which exemplifies how to evaluate speech recognition within a legitimate application context. Using machine learning on an initial seed of human-subject experimental data, our alternative metric handily outperforms WER, which correlates very poorly with human subjects’ success...
متن کاملWhy does self-reported emotional intelligence predict job performance? A meta-analytic investigation of mixed EI.
Recent empirical reviews have claimed a surprisingly strong relationship between job performance and self-reported emotional intelligence (also commonly called trait EI or mixed EI), suggesting self-reported/mixed EI is one of the best known predictors of job performance (e.g., ρ = .47; Joseph & Newman, 2010b). Results further suggest mixed EI can robustly predict job performance beyond cogniti...
متن کاملDoes pre-employment drug use predict on-the-job suitability?
Drug testing is increasingly used in the screening of applicants for employment. Despite the growth of drug testing, there is little research that examines the value of pre-employment drug-use information in the prediction of post-employment suitability. This research, which was based on a sample of 10,i88 young adults, examined the criterion-related validity of pre-employment drug-use informat...
