You just became the head of staffing for BabyBots, a manufacturer of small robots. You were surprised to learn that the company had never validated the manual dexterity test it uses to assess job candidates for its manufacturing jobs. You decided to do a concurrent validation study and administered the test to thirty manufacturing workers. Their scores are reported in Table 8-4, along with their ages, sex, race, and job performance ratings. You also calculated the correlation between the manual dexterity test and job performance to assess the test’s validity. You then examined the relationship between employees’ test scores and their performance ratings. The results of this analysis are shown in Tables 8-5 and 8-6.
