Instructions/Descriptions

Ethical and Fair Testing in the Workplace

Recommend at least one psychometrically sound integrity test for use in for employee selection. Include a brief description of the test you recommend and what it measures. Recommend at least one test that would be a more psychometrically sound option for personality assessment in the workplace than the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI). Include a brief description of the test you recommend and what it measures. Defend your test choices by briefly summarizing specific factors related to cultural diversity that should be taken into consideration. Debate the pros and cons of using psychological tests in the selection of police officers. Evaluate key ethical issues to consider when utilizing psychological tests in the workplace. Support ideas you share in your post by referencing the required resources for this week and at least one additional peer-reviewed journal article published within the last fifteen years.

Place yourself in the role of an I/O psychologist working hand-in-hand with the HR hiring managers. To begin, search your resources for an “integrity test” having validity and reliability of .80 or above. Describe the test. REMEMBER: this test is for employee selection. Now choose a psychometrically effective test for measuring personality assessment at the workplace (for example, The Big Five). Describe your chosen test, what it measures, and support for your selection. Identifying information regarding cultural diversity is important information when selecting employees whose job descriptions require knowledge of different or specific cultures. Also, are the tests fairly measuring those of diverse cultural background? The use of psychological tests is very appropriate when the context of the job itself is filled with trauma and requires interaction with all aspects of society. This is especially true in jobs where the work context has definite cultural and societal norms needing to be understood. Ethical issues when using psychological tests in the workplace include issues such as making certain there is an evaluator who is qualified to administer the test(s) and interpret the results. Another problem arises when there is no valid and reliable test available that “fits” the requirements of the job description. It is also problematic to make test results the most important variable in the selection process. Consider the tests themselves – do they need to be given in another language for best understanding? Are the tests chosen recognized as culturally relevant or are there limitations? Be certain to meet the resource requirements for the assignment (including one source outside the assigned readings).
