Not only the measures’ quality is dependent upon those statistics, but also they inform about their use, application, and potential benefits for users. Quality metric is all the more important when they have long term and consequential effects on a decision, people and their organization. When the objective of using the technique is improving people and organization’s per...")

The validation conditions for the hypothesis are specified below<ref>See here to learn more about how the hypotheses, and here about the criteria being used to define them.</ref>.

This approach requires organizational environments where variables and performance criteria can be tracked over time. This is the approach used for testing when building the first framework in Step 1. The same approach was used for the general framework of steps 2 and 3. =Phase 1 Case Studies= Duri...") originally created as "Framework Tests Methodology"

The first case, Posini, is a pharmaceutical company of around 350 people, a subsidiary of a global company, whose activity is focused on sales. It employs two sales teams. The second case, Qualibank, is a company of about twenty people founded and led by its CEO. It specializes in the marketing of promotional items to bank card holders.

Below are the characteristics identified in our large exploration field that either favor (+) or delay (-) the use or replacement of more advanced assessment techniques. The publisher and consu...")

They gradually become more integrated, efficient, and effective. To a minimum, individuals and organizations use parallel techniques for their assessment needs. When already equipped with more sophisticated techniques, such as structured interviews and assessment centers, companies cont...")

Although some propositions are applicable only to adaptive profiles, they can still be used when comparing other techniques. Code 3 is used to locate the observations within the exploration field. =Analysis= {| class="wikitable" style="margin: auto;" !Characteristic !!

Users 1 to 5 were from phase 1. Users 6 to 16 were added afterward. Users 10 to 16 were not included in the analyses and the general framework. Code 7 identifies users in our large exploration field. The main user characteristics and impact on pe...")

The operational content of the theoretical concepts "Use of assessment technique" was clarified during the analysis of the uses, which led to the consideration of nine categories. In this article, the hypothesis and how they were formulated are...")

The use and representation of metrics can be understood as signs, analyzed through the syntactic, semantic, or prag...")

Signs have long been studied in the science of signs, also called semiotics. The different modes of existence of a sign, its nine constituent elements, and the 10 combinations of these elements are defined more precisely in this article. This synthesis on signs is directly derived from Charle...") originally created as "Growing Meaning on Signs"

Values need to be contrasted with other important characteristics, notably the social behavior one for understanding their expression and development. =Generalities= Values are personal beliefs and principles that individuals see as important, whether at work...")

Characteristics are major aspects of differentiation between individuals. Many characteristics are naturally used when building judgment, but only a few become significant when considering people’s roles and their management in organizations. T...")

The methodology used to narrow down a general question to a specific question is explained in another art...")

Since the word normative also implies in sociology and organizations specific rules to follow, it’s important to note that “normativity” in assessment only pertains to how data is normalized, eventually using a normal Gaussian distribution or quantile scales, to allow meaningful understanding of a score and comparis...") originally created as "Intensity"

These two aspects are introduced first. This article also covers the procedure and operational steps. A general question is gradually narrowed down to a specific question that can be operationalized. Those two questions are key steps that help build a framework. The project took place in three phases, which...")

During the exploratory step, which accompanied the development of the general question in phase 1, the theories included psychometrics, psychology, general semantics, recruitment techniques, management, leadership, research methods, and epistemology.
