HRCI PHR Exam - Topic 10 Question 5 Discussion
Topic #: 10
You are a HR Professional for your organization and you're preparing your team for a series of interviews. You want the team to be familiar with the validity types you'll use and encourage in the series of interviews. One of the requirements in the interview process for a graphic designer is, for the graphic designer to use a software program and to create a simple brochure. This is an example of what type of validity?
The selection criterion for the graphic designer to use the software program and create a brochure is indicative of the type of work the graphic designer should be able to do in the job. This is an example of content validity for the applicant.
Answer option C is incorrect. Criterion-related validity is an example where performance scores achieved by current employees are based on the criterion used for the selection. For example, current employees can perform better because they can design artwork in particular software programs, so applicants must be able to use the particular software program to qualify for the position.
Answer option A is incorrect. Construct-related validity measures certain psychological tests to determine whether the applicant possesses the desired characteristics to operate successfully in the position.
Answer option B is incorrect. Predictive-validity is a confirmation of characteristics the candidate is tested for during the interview process, hold true in the actual performance of the candidate once they've been hired.
