Generalizing Validity Evidence
ثبت نشده
چکیده
At times, sufficient accumulated validity evidence is available for a selection procedure to justify its use in a new situation without conducting a local validation research study. In these instances, use of the selection procedure may be based on demonstration of the generalized validity inferences from that selection procedure, coupled with a compelling argument for its applicability to the current situation. Although neither mutually exclusive nor exhaustive, several strategies for generalizing validity evidence have been delineated: (a) transportability, (b) synthetic validity/job component validity, and (c) meta-analytic validity generalization.

متن کاملSources of Validity Evidence
Inferences made from the results of a selection procedure to the performance of subsequent work behavior or outcomes need to be based on evidence that supports those inferences. Three sources of evidence will be described: namely, evidence of validity based on relationships with measures of other variables, evidence based on content, and evidence based on the internal structure of the selection...

متن کاملTesting Validity of Using Sample Mean in Studies of Behavioral Facts
In this paper we argue that a couple of taken-for-granted methods employed in studying behavioral facts of human risk preference are mistakable. We call for within-subjects experiment design and propose a simple statistical method that might be used to test the validity of using sample mean in interpreting as well as generalizing risk preferences.
متن کاملAchieving external validity in home advantage research: generalizing crowd noise effects
Different factors have been postulated to explain the home advantage phenomenon in sport. One plausible explanation investigated has been the influence of a partisan home crowd on sports officials' decisions. Different types of studies have tested the crowd influence hypothesis including purposefully designed experiments. However, while experimental studies investigating crowd influences have h...
