| Summary |
"The chapters in this book attempt to state the main facts about tests, test methods, and test accomplishments, in the field of business. The aim throughout is to present a simple and impartial picture which will enable the reader to arrive at sound conclusions regarding the actual usefulness of tests in the business world, and the possibilities of future development. It is hoped that the material included will prove useful to anyone interested in the problem of more adequately adjusting men to jobs. The book is written for students of personnel practice and of applied psychology, and for all business executives who have been hearing the clamor about tests and who want to form a critical opinion on the basis of facts. At present it is important to emphasize the limitations and shortcomings of tests as to speak in glowing terms of their possibilities. Tests are scientific instruments. Test work should be supervised by someone with thorough training in applied psychology"--Preface. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved) |
