Prevue Assessment

Prevue Assessment | Ancora Learning - Your outsourced Learning and Development partner

Prevue Assessment measures a number of personal attributes of job candidates. First it provides a measure of a job candidate's abilities described in terms of:

  1. Working with Numbers (Numerical Reasoning)
  2. Working with Words (Language Skills)
  3. Working with Shapes (Spatial Reasoning)

An additional scale is developed from the combination of this data to provide a measure of the candidate's general ability.

Second, the Prevue Assessment provides an assessment of a candidate's areas of interest described in terms of their interest in:

  1. Working with Data
  2. Working with People
  3. Working with Things

The third and most significant area examined by the Prevue Assessment is an individual's personality traits. The personality assessment is based upon recognised personality scales for occupational assessment instruments.

These are the major scales of Independence, Conscientiousness, Extraversion and Stability, (ICES). Each of these major scales is constructed from two sub-scales or minor scales, details of which are contained in the Prevue Assessment Technical Manual.

The fourth area measured by the Prevue Assessment has to do with the internal validity of the candidate's responses to the questions in the assessment. A scale denoted as Social Desirability can provide a measure of the degree to which the test taker has modified responses to please or impress those who will be reading the resulting report.

In addition, abnormal response patterns to the questions in the assessment will invalidate a candidate's results. The validation of the Prevue Assessment is supported by a study of 5000 employed persons from Great Britain, the United States of America, Asia and Canada.

Research psychologists have also conducted numerous constructive, content, current and predictive studies to confirm the validity and reliability of the Prevue Assessment. The results of all of these studies are reported in the Prevue Assessment Technical Manual.

Reporting

Prevue enables 5 valuable reports to be generated within minutes of test end. This is why it is often referred to as a Human Resource Management tool rather than a psychometric measure.

Reports include:

Selection Report – measuring fit for role and generating sample interview questions where issues appear to arise.

Working Characteristics Report – providing additional information about fit for organisational culture and the individual’s preferences in the workplace

Individual Report – Provides an explanation of the individuals results – used for feedback

Personal Development Report – Examines gaps between the benchmark and the individuals profile – and suggest personal development actions.

Succession Planning Report - Helps to identify to which roles the individual might be well suited or lists in order of fit candidates for a single role.
