Let's start with the Journal of Applied Social Psychology (Dec-Feb):
- Cultural intelligence plays a key role in multicultural teams
- Theory of Planned Behavior can be used to explain intent to submit video resumes
- More on weight-based discrimination, including additional evidence that this occurs more among women (free right now!)
- Does the physical attractiveness bias hold in same-sex evaluative situations? Not so much, although it may depend on someone's social comparison orientation
- "Dark side" traits play a role in predicting career preference
- Evidence that efficacy beliefs play a significant role not only in individual performance, but in team performance
Next up, the January issue of JAP:
- The concept of differential validity among ethnic groups in cognitive ability testing has been much debated, and this study adds to the discussion by suggesting that the effects are largely artifactual due to range restriction.
- Or are they? This study on the same topic found that range restriction could not account for observed differential validity findings. So the debate continues...
- A suggestion for how to increase the salience of dimension ratings in assessment centers
- Ambition and emotional stability appear related to adaptive performance, particularly for managers
Spring Personnel Psych (free right now!)
- First, a fascinating study of P-E fit across various cultures. Turns out relational fit may be more important in collectivistic and high power distance cultures (e.g., East Asia), whereas rational fit may be more important in individualistic and lower power distance cultures (e.g., the U.S.).
- Next, a study of recruitment messaging for job involving international travel.
- Last but definitely not least, a narrative and quantitative extensive review of the structured interview
Not quite done: One from Psychological Science on statistical power in testing mediation, and just in case you needed more evidence, the Nov/Dec issue of HRM has several research articles supporting the importance of line manager behavior and HRM practices on things like employee engagement.
The Spring issue of IJSA should be out soon, so see ya soon!
