How does it work?
There is a series of 24 forced-choice items. The individual identifies qualities that are most and least like them at work.
What about validity?
Validity indicates whether the PPA measures what it says it will measure. On a scale of -1 to +1, 0.5 is acceptable and 0.7 or more indicates high validity measures. The PPA measures work behaviour and is .75-.95 valid.
Eight minutes? Is it thorough?
Yes. The PPA is a reliable tool with a .86 reliability measure. It provides accurate and objective data about the individual, to use in conjunction with an interview or discussion.
Does it show ‘good’ and ‘bad’ qualities?
No. It provides an understanding of how a person behaves at work and the characteristics they will demonstrate. There are no ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ answers or ‘good’ or ‘bad’ qualities.
Why would you need to do a PPA?
It is an objective tool that helps you confirm and validate information from the resume and interview to make an informed decision.
Can it solve HR issues?
The PPA provides objective and accurate behavioural information that you can use to address issues through 16 reports with various HR applications.
How will it help my business?
Your organization is only as good as the people you employ. The accuracy and objectivity of the system you use to recruit, train and develop the right people gives you a competitive edge.
