| Abstract: | In evaluating the fairness of personnel selection tests, the Ceary model (Cleary, 1968) is the most widely used and accepted method. Recently, a simplified approach to applying the Cleary model has been recommended (Lawshe, 1983; Reynolds, 1980, 1982). Analysis of this new method revealed that under certain circumstances it can produce misleading results. Recommendations were made for avoiding this problem. |
