Assessment Centers: An Annotated Bibliography.
Abstract
This report contains a compilation of published reports dealing with assessment centers and assessment center research. The reports include general information articles, reports on the implementation of an assessment center, research studies to determine the best method of arriving at a single overall evaluation of managerial potential from assessment center data, and reports on validities of assessment center evaluations. Not included are the many related studies on individual assessment techniques; such as in-basket exercises or leaderless group discussions since they have been used independently of assessment centers. The general finding, in the reports described, is that assessment center evaluations are more predictive of future management success than the traditional evaluations based on supervisor's reports, paper-and-pencil tests, and interviews.
