SECTION 335:15-13-6. Presentation of validation study of employee selection test
Latest version.
- The presentation of the results of a validation study of a test used for employee selection must include graphical and statistical representations of the relationships between the test and the criteria, permitting judgments of the test's utility in making predictions of future work behavior. (See 335:15-13-5(c) concerning assessing utility of a test.) Average scores for all tests and criteria must be reported for all relevant subgroups, including minority and non-minority groups where differential validation is required. Whenever statistical adjustments are made in validity results for less than perfect reliability or for restriction of score range in the test or the criterion, or both, the supporting evidence from the validation study must pe presented in detail. Furthermore, for each test that is to be established or continued as an operational employee selection instruction, as a result of the validation study, the minimum acceptable cut off (passing) score on the test must be reported. It is expected that each operational cut off score will be reasonable and consistent with normal expectations of proficiency within the work force or group on which the study was conducted.
