Multiple Speeded Assessments Under Scrutiny

Groundbreaking research

📢Exciting news! Hudson contributed to groundbreaking research into the effectiveness of “multiple speeded assessments”. A scientific paper on the topic, authored by Dr. Christoph Herde and world authority in assessment research Prof. Dr. Filip Lievens, has been published in the prestigious Journal of Applied Psychology. 

Editor's Choice

🏆 Publishing in such a high-ranked peer-reviewed journal is hard enough as it it, but that's not all – the study was selected as the "Editor's Choice" for its societal relevance, practical impact, and potential to move the science of I/O psychology in new directions!

The effectiveness of multiple speeded assessments

💡This groundbreaking research delves into the effectiveness of multiple speeded assessments (i.e. a series of “flash” role-plays): various assessor pools assessed a sample of 96 participants in eighteen 3-minute role-plays, designed to capture situations in the junior management domain. Aggregated across all ratings, the overall validity for predicting future performance (as rated by the participants’ supervisors) was exceptionally high (.54)!  

Hudson as main project partner

💪As the main partner in this project, Hudson developed the role-plays, provided role player and assessor training, professional role players/assessors, and various psychometric tools (a reasoning ability test, personality questionnaire and E-tray), which all contributed to the study's success.  

At the forefront of leading research

🙏We are proud to be at the forefront of leading research in the field of assessment methods, and we plan to keep collaborating with top academics to keep our finger on the pulse of innovation in assessment.
