Some of exam questions can only be answered by coming to lecture and listening to what i say aloud. Selection = choose the individuals that have the knowledges/skills that are needed to do the job. Test and review work samples (cognitive/physical abilities testing) Consistent results (the extent to which a measurement generates consistent results) Physical strength test (similar score weeks from now) Doesn"t tell if its accurate, but only consistent. The extent to which performance on a measure is related to what the measure is designed to assess. E. g. toe size is not a valid indicator of who is or isn"t a good performer.
