About Employee Testing and Selection MCQs

This topic explains what makes a selection test useful. Questions ask you to define validity as measuring what a test is meant to measure, and reliability as the consistency of scores. You will distinguish criterion validity from content validity, where a test contains a fair sample of the tasks done on the job, and recognise work samples that measure performance on actual tasks. The Big Five personality model appears through traits such as openness to experience, and expectancy charts show the link between test scores and job performance.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between test validity and reliability?

Validity is whether a test measures what it is supposed to measure, such as job performance. Reliability is whether it gives consistent scores when repeated or marked by different people. A test can be reliable without being valid, but a valid test must also be reliable.

What are the Big Five personality traits?

The Big Five are extraversion, emotional stability or neuroticism, agreeableness, conscientiousness and openness to experience. Openness describes a tendency to be imaginative, curious and broad-minded. Conscientiousness is often the trait most linked to job performance.
