[IPAC-List] Seeking History of Employee Selection Testing

[Barry Nathan]

I think Jerry Wiggins' book on personality and prediction, had an excellent review. It's old (1973), but aside from in politics, history doesn't change.  Caveat: I read this in graduate school - a long time ago.  Hopefully I'm remembering the right book.   ( Wiggins, J.S. (1973). Personality and Prediction: Principles of personality assessment. Reading, MA: Addison-Wesley.)
