摘要：The authors describe the development of and build validity evidence for the Developmental Challenge Profile (DCP), an instrument for assessing the developmental components of managerial jobs. Factor analysis of responses from 692 managers resulted in the creation of 15 DCP scales. Assessments of internal consistency, confirmation of the factor structure, and test-retest reliability provided further psychometric support for the scales. The existence of expected relationships between the scales ...

摘要：The total variance in any observed measure of performance can be attributed to 3 sources: (a) the correlation of the measure with the latent variable of interest (i.e., true score variance), (b) reliable but irrelevant variance due to contamination, and (c) error. A model is proposed that specifies 3, and only 3, determinants of the relevant variance: declarative knowledge, procedural knowledge and skill, and volitional choice (motivation). The 3 determinants are defined, and their implication...

摘要：Mental practice is the cognitive rehearsal of a task prior to performance. Although most researchers contend that mental practice is an effective means of enhancing performance, a clear consensus is precluded because (a) mental practice is often defined so loosely as to include almost any type of mental preparation and (b) empirical results are inconclusive. A meta-analysis of the literature on mental practice was conducted to determine the effect of mental practice on performance and to ident...

摘要：This meta-analytic review presents the findings of a project investigating the validity of the employment interview. Analyses are based on 245 coefficients derived from 86,311 individuals. Results show that interview validity depends on the content of the interview (situational, job related, or psychological), how the interview is conducted (structured vs. unstructured; board vs. individual), and the nature of the criterion (job performance, training performance, and tenure; research or admini...

摘要：Subjects completed 7 trials of a complex computer task that simulated the job of an air traffic controller Performance was calculated by combining points for the number of planes landed minus penalty points. Throughout the trials, subjects completed questionnaires assessing their self-efficacy, goals, expected performance, and the degree to which certain judgments required more or less cognitive processing. The results showed that during skill acquisition people report reductions in their cogn...

摘要：It is first argued that the across-octant conclusions that are usually drawn from F. E. Fiedler's (1967) contingency model of leadership may be problematic, because virtually all its tests have used only within-octant research designs. Across-octant comparisons were therefore made by analyzing data from 1,282 groups used in previous research. Using nonparametric and parametric meta-analytic procedures, the authors found that the drawing of across-octant conclusions was not supported. Further a...

摘要：Research on the cognitive mechanisms underlying frame-of-reference (FOR) rater training is extended by examining the impact of FOR training on the recall of performance information. It was hypothesized that the shared performance schema fostered by FOR training would serve as the basis for information processing, resulting in better recall for behavioral performance information as well as more accurate ratings of individual ratees. FOR-trained subjects (N = 174) produced more accurate performa...
