According to the application pattern mentioned above , a field study has been carried out to investigate the affects of this pattern on the validity of in - basket test
12.
In particular , what the in - basket test actually measure has been a question . with the development of managerial competence research , the concept of competence has been more widely used in management function , so is the in - basket testing
13.
As one of situational simulations , in - basket testing is an important assessment technique in personnel selection and assessment . it was widely used in selection , training and promotion decisions of middle - level managers or senior managers
14.
However , there were few studies exploring the process of in - basket testing . in addition , a few domestic studies had explored the construct validity of in - basket test whereas validation studies and theory - based hypotheses were needed
15.
We have designed a more detailed benchmark for grading the planning ability so that we get a higher reliability and validity in assessing this ability . thus we draw an initial conclusion that designing a detailed and objective benchmark is very important for improving the effects of in - basket test
16.
And trait - activation questionnaire was used to test these four dimensions . the results showed thinking competence , managerial function competence , and drive for results could be captured by in - basket test . in addition , thinking and managerial function competence was mostly used in the in - basket test
17.
Raters in this study grade the testees independently , and the outcomes of this study indicates that the difference of the two kinds of raters is significant , so we infer that the reliability of in - basket test can be reduced if the raters have not discussed to reach a relatively common opinion on the testees " performance
18.
With the perspective of implicit assessment strategy , the present study , attempted to examine the trait - activation potential of in - basket , individual cognitive process strategies , and assessor ' s implicit framework of evaluation , construct and incremental validity . the results were shown as follows . first , by the idea of trait - activation potential and competence , we proposed four dimensions of in - basket test as a main framework , including thinking competence , managerial function competence , interpersonal competence , and drive for results
19.
By using hierarchical regression analyses , the result showed in - basket had good incremental validity over cognitive test . combined in - basket test with cognitive test , we found the total r2 would be become larger . using content analysis and cluster analysis , we found there were three types of cognitive process strategies among assessees
20.
Cognitive process strategies have been a component of construct . moreover , task characteristic would moderate the relationship between cognitive process strategies and in - basket testing . specifically , assessess who used integrative analysis cognitive process strategy would get best score in the problem - solving task ; according to different task characteristic , there was different relationship between cognitive process strategies and in - basket validity
