“…Similar results were found for specific impression management behaviors (Klehe et al, 2014;McFarland et al, 2005). Strikingly, in Oliver et al (2016), there were no direct relationships between the interpersonal behaviors they investigated (i.e., relationship building and directive communication) and role-play performance. Although these studies offered some hints about the kinds of behavioral aspects that might be effective in interpersonal AC exercises, they were based on very few specific behaviors.…”

“…Although assessees' behaviors play a key role in both streams of research, the kinds of behaviors that assessees display have surprisingly not been studied very much and are thereby not well understood. That is, researchers have examined only a very specific set of behaviors (e.g., specific impression management behaviors; Klehe et al, 2014;McFarland et al, 2005;Oliver et al, 2016) or have obtained indirect information about behaviors via assessors' notes or checklist registrations (Lievens et al, 2015). This lack of attention to assessees' behaviors has left pivotal questions unanswered: What kinds of behaviors do assessees typically display, and can they be grouped into meaningful clusters?…”

“…Sail and Alavi (2010) assert that interpersonal skills increase the knowledge of employees after they receive training. Olivier et al (2009) mention that the structuring and awareness features of room-based collaborative platforms can enhance the learning experience of soft skills (communication and leadership skills) courses. Shyamala et al (2009) second that the infusion acquisition of soft skills remains highly concentrated on specific items/skills for both coursework and training.…”

“…For the ratings of the social skill dimensions, we relied on global behaviorally anchored rating scales (e.g., Please rate the candidate's assertiveness) ranging from 0 to 5. Behavioral anchors were based on previous research concerning the selected social skills (e.g., Hirschmüller et al, 2015;Oliver et al, 2016) and were identical across the respective exercises (e.g., assertiveness: shows selfconfident posture, confident flow of speech, leads the interaction). 2 For all social skills, this included a mixture of nonverbal (e.g., warmth: friendly expression) and verbal (e.g., warmth: statements of support) behaviors.…”
