Project description

In recent years, research in work and organizational psychology has started to use implicit personality measures to predict behavior in organizations. This research project uses Thurstonian item-response theory models to investigate and further develop two measurement procedures for implicit personality characteristics—the operant motive test and the conditional reasoning test—such that the methods can be used in organizations.
