Researchers in the Assessment Research and Analysis (ARA) Program apply psychological theory and analytic methods to research on and the design, development, and validation of tests and assessments used in employment, education, certification, and the military.

We also generate technical solutions to client needs through advanced statistical applications and large-scale database management.

Development of an Entry-Level Process for Field Representatives (Census)

Article Image

The U.S. Census Bureau is planning to update the selection system for the Field Representative position. As a result, HumRRO developed several new selection tools: a cognitive ability test, a situational judgment test, a structured interview, and a work sample.

A criterion-related validation study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of the instruments in predicting job performance. Currently, HumRRO is working with the client to resolve implementation issues, including establishing an appropriate cut score.

Development of an Entry-Level Selection Process for FBI Intelligence Career Service Jobs

Article Image

To protect the United States from terrorist attack and to prevent such attacks, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) needs human capital management processes that facilitate the selection of highly qualified Intelligence Career Service (ICS) personnel. HumRRO was hired to assist with this effort, in part because we had previously developed written assessments for the FBI's entry-level Special Agent Selection System.
