This volume presents the first wide-ranging critical review of
validity generalization (VG)--a method that has dominated the field
since the publication of Schmidt and Hunter's (1977) paper
"Development of a General Solution to the Problem of Validity
Generalization." This paper and the work that followed had a
profound impact on the science and practice of applied psychology.
The research suggests that fundamental relationships among tests
and criteria, and the constructs they represent are simpler and
more regular than they appear. Looking at the history of the VG
model and its impact on personnel psychology, top scholars and
leading researchers of the field review the accomplishments of the
model, as well as the continuing controversies. Several chapters
significantly extend the maximum likelihood estimation with
existing models for meta analysis and VG. Reviewing 25 years of
progress in the field, this volume shows how the model can be
extended and applied to new problems and domains. This book will be
important to researchers and graduate students in the areas of
industrial organizational psychology and statistics.
