Praise for "Alternative Validation Strategies" "This indispensable volume by top-notch authors from academe, consulting, and organizations provides detailed analyses and practical applications of sometimes inaccessible techniques of validity generalization, job component validity, synthetic validity, content validation, and construct validation. The authors describe these procedures as they apply to a variety of narrow and broad ability and personality attributes relevant to job effectiveness." --George Thornton, professor, Department of Psychology, Colorado State University "This work offers a comprehensive survey of current thought on alternative methods of validation. It provides insight into the relative strengths of various methods and gives hope to those of us who argue that criterion-related methods should not be preferred over other methods simply because they appear to be more scientific. Throughout, the authors remind us that whatever the methodology, the goal remains the same: selection procedures that help employers identify the best employees for the job and that their attorneys can defend against legal challenge. Every attorney practicing in this area should add this work to the reference shelf." --Patrick J. Rocks, general counsel, Chicago Public Schools "While the Uniform Guidelines provide the 'rules' for the validation of selection procedures, this compilation of techniques offers both researchers and practitioners timely, practical, and defensible approaches for getting it done." --John Leonard, manager, organizational development, Valero Energy Corporation Media > Book, [PU: Jossey-Bass Publishers]<
