RODRIGUEZ, Alexander. Predictive validity and adverse impact of the structured behavioral interview in the public sector. Rev. psicol. trab. organ. [online]. 2016, vol.32, n.2, pp.75-85. ISSN 2174-0534. https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.rpto.2016.04.003.
This paper studies the role of the structured behavioral interview (SBI) in the selection procedures of the public sector. The Spanish legislation calls on to examine whether selection procedures are linked to performance and whether the principle of equal opportunities regarding gender is respected. Hence, it was analyzed if there were gender differences in the interview scores in a sample of 379 candidates. Furthermore, performance of 125 hired subjects was assessed, allowing us to measure the predictive validity of the SBI. Results are similar to those obtained by previous research -SBIs are a significant predictor of performance and they do not produce adverse gender impact. Finally, implications of these results are discussed.
