Abstract
The Personnel Selection Inventory was introduced as a component of the preemployment hiring procedures by a major retail drug chain in the southeastern United States. In the 3-yr. period following, two major results occurred. There was a significant increase in the proportion of employees who passed their annual routine polygraph examination and shrinkage losses were reduced sufficiently to reflect a savings of over one million dollars for the chain.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
