English term or phrase: predictor battery
Examining the utility and validity of selection devices generally, Schmidt and Hunter (1998) summarized 85 years of research findings. They reported that assessment center ratings did have a corrected correlation with external criteria of job success of 0.37. However, consistent with Scholz and Schuler (1993), they also pointed out the high correlation of assessment centers with general mental ability, which they estimated to be around 0.50. Because of this, when combined with a measure of general mental ability as part of a predictor battery, Schmidt and Hunter would expect an assessment center to account for very little additional variance, hence calling its utility into question. Recently, Fleenor (1996) found that the personality trait 'exhibition' was significantly correlated with all 10 assessment center dimensions, the trait 'aggression' with 7 and the trait 'dominance' with 5 dimensions. Apparently, participants who were 'good actors' and highly competitive were rated significantly higher in the assessment center. Moser, Diemand, and Schuler (1996) correlated ratings of 58 candidates on a selfmonitoring questionnaire to their ratings in an assessment center, which was designed to provide recommendations for promotion to supervisory positions.
