STRATEGIC STAFFING CASE ANALYSIS 2

What kind of relationship exists between employees’ scores on the manual dexterity test

and their performance ratings?

Most often high test scores are reflected in higher performance ratings by the

organization (Phillips & Gully, 2015). From table 8-5, the correlation between the test and job

performance is calculated at 0.86. The value 0.86 indicates a high positive correlation. Since the

correlation is 0.86, the score on the manual dexterity test predicts the job performance 86% of

the time.

Suppose a candidate scored 44 on the manual dexterity test. The regression equation

predicting job performance using the manual dexterity test is

𝟑𝟐. 𝟒𝟔𝟓 + (𝟏. 𝟐𝟑𝟒 × 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐮𝐚𝐥 𝐝𝐞𝐱𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐭𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐬𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐞)

What is the candidate’s predicted performance?

Predicted performance = 32.465 + (1.234 × 44) = 86.761

Assume that only candidates with predicted performance above 85 are to be hired. This

translates to a score of at least 43 on the manual dexterity test. Assume only those with

scores above 43 were hired (20 of the 30 people in this sample). Would the use of this test

have led to evidence of adverse impact based on sex or race? The relevant data on the 20

people exceeding the cutoff were presented earlier in the table.

From table 8-6 the hiring rate for females is 81.25% since 13 out of 16 women score at

least 43. Clearly, this forms the highest proportion hired between the two groups of candidates.

The 4/5

(80%) rule requires that the hiring rate of any other group – in this case, males – be at

least 80% of the hiring rate for the group that has the highest proportion. Therefore, the

percentage of men required is given by;
