评价中心的结构效度研究

评价中心虽然具备很高的预测效度，但其结构效度指标却不太理想，如研究普遍发现其汇聚效度和区分效度较低。影响评价中心结构效度的因素众多，如评分维度因素（数量和类型）、评价者因素（培训方式和人员类型）、测评方法因素（情景导向特征、特质激活潜力、测评活动形式）以及系统的观察与评价程序。该文从上述因素出发，综述了评价中心结构效度的相关研究，总结了提高评价中心结构效度的措施，并指出了未来的研究方向

The Construct Validity of Assessment Center

Despite evidence of high predictive validity, research has shown less support for the construct validity of assessment center rating. Low convergent validity and low discriminant validity were consistently found in most studies. Many factors influence construct validity of assessment center, eg. rating dimension factor(number and types), assessor factor(types of assessor and training), assessment method factor(situational specificity, trait-activation potential, assessment exercises), systematic observation and evaluation procedures. This article review related researches about all those factors mentioned above, and summarize recommendations to increase construct validity of assessment center. New perspectives for future research are described.
