Use of non-cognitive instrument in personnel selection and appraisal
Abstract
There is a great scope for using non-cognitive instruments
in personnel selection and appraisal systems. Non-cognitive
instruments have been viewed in this paper at three levels.
The first category of instruments at the self level are useful
when the personality required by d fferent roles in organiza
tions are known. The second category of instruments deal
with social interaction phenomena and are useful when inter
personal skills and social interaction styles required by roles
are known. The third category of instruments deal with per
son-organization or person-profession interaction. This cate
gory is rather new to the field of personnel selection. Simul
taneous knowledge of existing organizational culture and per
sonality needs of the applicants would help predicting and
controlling the outcomes of their participation. Examples of
the different categories of these instruments are presented
along with a brief survey of non-cognitive instrumentation
in India.
