[IPAC-List] Psychological testing

Hi Dennis,

It is my understanding that the tests I identified are administered post conditional offer of employment.

Sincerely,

Laura,

Are you using those post-offer as part of a psychological screen, or as part of pre-employment testing?

My agency currently utilizes the following three tools in their psychological testing battery:


•        California Psychological Inventory (CPI-434)

•        Personality Assessment Inventory (PAI)

•        State-Trait Anger Expression Inventory (STAXI)

We are interested in learning what other agencies utilize, what challenges they may have faced as well as if anyone can recommend exams which have a reduced bias against non-native English speakers.

Thank you in advance for your assistance.
