Aptitude Tests

Aptitude tests which have been scientifically developed predict job performance remarkably well. It's important, however, to choose highly reliable and valid tools, and not simply those recommended by a colleague.

Aptitude Tests Best Practice

These maximum performance tests have been shown in meta-analytic studies to be one of the absolute best predictors of workplace performance. PsyAsia International’s tests are chosen carefully to ensure that the assessments reflect contemporary work needs. Many of our non-psychologist competitors simply distribute whatever psychometric tests they can get their hands on and are often unaware of how to evaluate the different assessments on the market. At PsyAsia International, our doctoral-level and award-winning psychologists have thoroughly reviewed the tests we sell to ensure superior reliability and validity. To this end, we work with the world’s most renowned test publishers.

Why use Aptitude Tests?

The use of such tests is widely acknowledged to be one of the most successful methods of predicting an individual’s success within a role, for both job applicants and succession planning. In fact, did you know they are more predictive than most personality assessments and job interviews? These benefits only hold true for tests designed by psychologists and psychometricians who understand statistics, and reliability and validity issues in psychometric test design.
