Comprehensive meta-analysis of integrity test validities: Findings and implications for personnel selection and theories of job performance.

Abstract: The authors conducted a comprehensive meta-analysis based on 665 validity coefficients across 576,460 data points to investigate whether integrity test validities are generalizable and to estimate differences in validity due to potential moderating influences. Results indicate that integrity test validities are substantial for predicting job performance and counterproductive behaviors on the job, such as theft, disciplinary problems, and absenteeism. The estimated mean operational predictive validity of integr… Show more

“…Generalizability is indicated when the upper and lower bounds of the CrI do not cross zero. 21 Note that whereas the CI provides information about estimates of a single value, the credibility index provides information on the distribution of parameter values. Fail-safe N was calculated as a measure of study availability bias (or publication bias).…”

“…A number of studies have also provided support for its utility in predicting job performance (Hough, Eaton, Dunnette, Kamp, & McCloy, 1990;Hurtz & Donovan, 2000;Ones, Viswesvaran, & Schmidt, 1993). Individuals who are low on conscientiousness are often disorganized, lackadaisical, unreliable, and impulsive (Costa & McCrae, 1992).…”

“…Low overall job satisfaction, low organizational commitment, and low perceived distributive justice are examples of other workplace variables that often predict turnover. Also, personality-based integrity tests have been shown to predict absenteeism (Ones, Viswesvaran, and Schmidt, 1993) and may be an alternative approach to examining employee absenteeism. There may be benefits to including these measures in the exit survey or other information gathering surveys for those who have high rates of absenteeism, have expressed intentions to quit, or have recently quit.…”
