Abstract or Description

The quality of psychological assessment processes in talent management is influenced by our choices about which measurement technologies to use. Technology with relevance to assessing talent is also advancing at great speed in many domains. These advances include processing power and speed, human computer interaction research, and machine learning and artificial intelligence. Given these rapid developments, it is an appropriate time to pause and take stock of how emerging assessment approaches (e.g., game-based assessment) that leverage these new developments are used, relative to more traditional approaches such as questionnaires and interviews. To achieve this objective, we report here on a survey of European assessment practitioners. We ask about the technology they use for psychological assessment, the constructs they measure with those approaches, and the levels of organisations they are used at. We also asked about how traditional approaches are being enhanced with technology and about practitioner perceptions of the reliability, validity and adverse impact and privacy of their technological choices.
