Ramos-Villagrasa Elena Fernández-del-Río Psicología Game Personality Serious games Job performance based assessment The use of game-related assessments (GRAs) in personnel selection is increasing. However, the type of GRA under investigation should be considered. This study focuses on game-based assessments, which closely resemble leisure-oriented videogames. We specifically examined a serious game that assesses personality traits (assertiveness, sociability, tolerance, and rules). We analyzed its predictive validity, applicant reactions, and the impact of personal and job-related factors on scores. The study included 182 participants who played the GRA and completed a Big Five questionnaire. Findings revealed that the game predicts adaptive performance, offering incremental value over the Big Five (ΔR2 = .107). Additionally, candidates reacted more positively to the GRA in terms of comfort and fit, although the effect size was small (d = -0.1757 and -0.3119, respectively). Relating to personal and job-related characteristics, only job experience significantly affected the assertiveness score, albeit with a small effect size (d = -0.3870). 2023 artículo científico 1576-5962 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=231377375005 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2313/231377375005/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2313/231377375005/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2313/231377375005/231377375005.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2313/231377375005/movil 10.5093/jwop2023a18 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=2313 Revista de Psicología del Trabajo y de las Organizaciones application/pdf Colegio Oficial de la Psicología de Madrid Revista de Psicología del Trabajo y de las Organizaciones (España) Num.3 Vol.39 |
