“Validity is nearly twice as high for job specific
tests than for of the-shelf tests. In fact, the
levels for locally developed tests appear to
rival those of general ability tests” (Dye, Reck
& McDaniel, 1993,p. 156).

“Content-related evidence of validity

“construct validation and theory

test measures a specific construct …
that has been determined to be critical

about job performance from test scores

Center of Job Knowledge Research
• Why CJKR? Because job knowledge…
• Is among the most important yet least understood
individual level drivers of the knowledge economy
• Is imperative to successfully match people to jobs but
largely neglected in personnel selection research
• Is an ultimate outcome against which both education and
training must be evaluated
• Is a means to ensure public spending on education
enhances graduates’ opportunities, fit, and
accomplishment on the labor market

www.jobknowledge.eu
A personnel selection and training platform that takes
an individualized approach to the assessment and
development of job knowledge of ICT Systems analysts
www.ontohr.eu
Transfer of innovation: Development of job knowledge
test and training platform for nurses
www.med-assess.eu
OntoTech
Extending portfolio of ICT Job Knowledge Tests
for purposes of curriculum diagnostics and
development
UvAInform
Learning analytics is “the measurement, collection,
analysis, and reporting of data about learners and their
contexts, for purposes of understanding and optimizing
learning and the environments in which it occurs”
(SOLAR 2012).
Internal UvA project aimed at the pan-university
development of an educational data informed goal
setting interface.

Development of Job Knowledge Tests:
Implications
• Focus on idiosyncratic job knowledge
requirements
– Requires use of inductive, interpretive research
methods or BIG data

• Implications for status and acceptance of such
research within the personnel psychology
community
Job Knowledge as Matchmaker
• Connecting:
– HRM, eLearning, Knowledge Management, Labour
Economics (foster collaboration)
– Academia and industry (Science and practice)
– Employees and workplaces (Enhanced Matching)
– Policy and Education (Training)
– Government and Labor Market (Needs analysis)
