psychologyAbstract
Testele psihologice şi evaluările au fost utilizate în selecţia de personal începând cu primul război mondial, dar până în anii ’80 s-a considerat că factorii care determină succesul variază puternic de la un post la altul şi de la o organizaţie la alta. În mod particular, a fost larg răspândită convingerea că testele care constituiau predictori eficienţi ai succesului într-un post sau organizaţie s-ar putea dovedi inutile ca predictori ai succesului în alte posturi sau organizaţii similare şi că ar fi necesar să se construiască teste pentru selecţie în cazul fiecărui post sau organizaţie. După câteva decenii de cercetare, psihologii Frank Schmidt şi John Hunter au arătat că această presupunere era incorectă şi că este posibil să se stabilească legături clare, simple şi generalizabile între diferenţele individuale, cum sunt abilităţile cognitive generale sau trăsăturile de personalitate şi succesul într-o varietate de posturi.
