Employment Test Psychological tests •

•
The purpose is to provide an objective means of measuring individual characteristics
Types of tests
Intelligence (cognitive ability) tests - measures general intelligence: the capacity of abstract thinking and reasoning
Personality test - refers to techniques that are used to accurately and consistently measure personality. Personality is something that we informally assess and describe every day. When we talk about ourselves and others, we frequently refer to different characteristics of an individual's personality.
Ability tests - Aptitude and ability tests are standardised ways of assessing how well people typically perform in varying work tasks or react in different situations. They have the advantage of measuring potential rather than simply academic performance, and are often used to make predictions about how people will perform in a work setting.
Aptitude tests (no prior knowledge assumed) - An aptitude test is a systematic means of testing a job candidate's abilities to perform specific tasks and react to a range of different situations. The tests each have a standardised method of administration and scoring, with the results quantified and compared with all other test takers. No prior knowledge is assumed, as the tests seek to determine innate ability at a particular competency.
Attainment tests test- A test designed to measure a person’s current knowledge and proficiency, used to assess what a person already knows, as opposed to their ability to learn. For example, a person may take a typing test to demonstrate their current ability and skill level at typing. Performance Appraisal System for Teachers (PAST)
Performance appraisal is a method by which the job performance is being documented and evaluated. It is also referred as performance review, performance evaluated, and employee appraisal. it also describes the strengths, weaknesses, abilities and competencies of an employee in relation to the job.
Why do we do appraisal? To ensure that individual performance reflects good practice. To recognise aspects of outstanding practice so that they can be shared. To maintain high standard of professionalism. To identify training and development needs. 3 Performance Indicator I. II. III.
