Abstract

This article presents two studies examining reliability (internal consistency, equivalence, and stability), construct validity, and gender discrimination of merit ratings as a personnel selection procedure. The first study (N=72) found that merit rating showed a large test-retest reliability and rater¿s agreement (rxx=.93) but low internal consistency (a=.53). It was also observed evidence of gender discrimination against women. In the second study, two samples (N=42 and N=98) were used for estimating internal consistency,construct validity and gender discrimination. Results showed Alpha's coefficients smaller than study 1 and larger gender discrimination. Finally, the implications of this procedure for the research and practice of personnel selection are discussed.
