Dollar-Value Utility of Alternative Procedures for Selecting School Principals.

Hogan, Joyce; Zenke, Larry

Educational and Psychological Measurement, v46 n4 p935-45 Win 1986

This paper evaluates four selection procedures for hiring school principals. These procedures (interviews, assessment center, selected assessment center exercises, and paper and pencil inventories) were compared in terms of validity, processing costs, and dollar gain expected from implementation. The selected assessment center exercises were found to have the greatest utility. (Author/LMO)
