GARCIA-IZQUIERDO, Antonio L; RAMOS-VILLAGRASA, Pedro J y LUBIANO, María A. Developing biodata for public manager selection purposes: a comparison between fuzzy logic and traditional methods. Rev. psicol. trab. organ. [online]. 2020, vol.36, n.3, pp.231-242. Epub 11-Ene-2021. ISSN 2174-0534. https://dx.doi.org/10.5093/jwop2020a22.
Biodata have been widely used in personnel selection for a long time, mainly due to their predictive validity in different contexts, low faking, and positive applicant reactions. At the same time, some disadvantages need to be highlighted, with discriminatory content representing a major concern. In order to shed light on these issues, the objectives of the present research are twofold: firstly, we aim to develop biodata items for personnel selection for the provision of managerial positions in Public Administration and, secondly, we aim to test the fuzzy logic method as a valid approach for the development of biodata scales, with a view to choosing the best biodata items in terms of job performance, fairness, and privacy, according with manager and applicant perspectives. Participants assessed 26 items according to traditional and fuzzy rules, resulting in 8 highly effective items. Then, both approaches were compared: fuzzy logic turned out to have similar results as the traditional approach. Finnally, future developments in research an practical implications in the field are suggested.
