That’s why it’s essential to measure talent holistically—and why Wonderlic’s \"whole person” assessments combine three of the most predictive constructs into one easy-to-understand score.  \nFor decades, research has shown cognitive ability to be the construct most predictive of job performance*. But in recent years, follow-up research has shown that whole-person assessments that measure multiple aspects of employee potential are even more  \npredictive of on-the-job success**.  \n88  \nCognitive Ability Personality Motivation  \n* Schmidt, F.

And the assessments that correlated most highly with job performance—by a significant amount—were holistic, multimeasure assessments like WonScore.  \nThe correlation between assessment scoresand performance ratings  \nMulti-measure assessmentscan also increase the predictive power of other hiring methods.  \nAdditionally, Sackett and colleagues synthesized hundreds of other studies to understand how common methods used to make hiring decisions (like the Structured Interview) correlate to supervisory ratings of job performance. While these methods work well on their own, multi-measure assessments like WonScore can easily supplement existing processes and improve prediction of job performance.  \nThe data is clear:  \nWonderlic’s“whole person”assessment is the most trustworthy approach  \nto finding the best talent for every role and can easily improve your existing hiring processes.  \nTo learn more about how Wonderlic’s WonScore assessment can help you hire with more confidence, schedule time to speak with a talent expert here.  \nFollow us on:  \nCopyright © [2022 Wonderlic. | 877.605.9496 | ](2022 Wonderlic. | 877.605.9496 | wonderlic.com)[wonderlic.com](2022 Wonderlic. | 877.605.9496 | wonderlic.com) 2","cbCaidNrGEaDJjzd","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaidNrGEaDJjzd","pdf",539933,"English","# Research findings\n## Whole-person multi-measure assessments\n## Evidence from meta-analytic research\n## Impact on other hiring methods\n## Practical takeaway for hiring","[{\"question\":\"What is the core claim about why Wonderlic assessments are most predictive?\",\"answer\":\"The document claims that Wonderlic’s whole-person assessments combine multiple predictive constructs into one score, making them more predictive of on-the-job success than approaches focused on fewer factors.\"},{\"question\":\"Which research supports the shift toward multi-measure assessment?\",\"answer\":\"It references follow-up research from 2021 by I-O psychologist Paul Sackett and colleagues that synthesized hundreds of studies and found higher correlations for holistic, multimeasure assessments.\"},{\"question\":\"How can multi-measure assessments affect other hiring tools like structured interviews?\",\"answer\":\"The document states that multi-measure assessments can supplement existing hiring processes and increase predictive power beyond standalone methods, including structured interviews.\"}]","Why Wonderlic Assessments Deliver the Most Predictive Results - Whole-Person Multi-Measure Evidence | PDF",1790324664]
