Abstract
The use of supervisory assessments of performance during the course of a test validation study raised statistical problems in the handling of variable degrees of racial bias on the part of the raters and differing lengths of job tenure on the part of the employees. This paper describes a method of solving these problems which permitted use of 100% of the available supervisory ratings.Keywords
