property of a personnel assessment method is predictive validity: the ability to predict future job performance‚ job-related learning (such as amount of learning in training and development programs)‚ and other criteria. The predictive validity coefficient is directly proportional to the practical economic value (utility) of the assessment method (Brogden‚ 1949; Schmidt‚ Hunter‚ McKenzie‚ & Muldrow‚ 1979).

whilst on tour of duty‚ detailed recordings were kept of each sailor’s health status. The recorded Life Change Scores were correlated with the sailor’s illness score. Findings: There was a positive correlation of + 0.118 between Life Change Scores and illness scores. Although the positive correlation was small‚ it did indicate that there was a meaningful relationship between LCU’s and health. As LCU scores increased‚ so did the frequency of illness. Conclusion: The researchers concluded that as
