- Title
Potentials and Limitations for Integrating Industrial/Organizational and Personality Psychology.
- Authors
FUNDER, DAVID C.
- Abstract
I applaud Lievens's promotion of the use of advances in research on personnel selection by basic personality psychology. However, I evaluate his three key recommendations differently. First, I am enthusiastic about bringing assessment centre techniques into the toolbox of personality measurement. Second, self-report personality inventories might be enhanced by adding items aimed at measuring behaviours and attitudes, but this approach is not entirely new. Third, while making assessment instruments more context-specific may indeed improve predictive validity, excessive contextualization can undermine the explanatory value of personality trait constructs.
