Comparison between PXT Select and Profile XT
PXT Select shares many similarities with the Profile XT. The main difference between the two lies in the design; PXT Select has a more modern design and utilizes adaptive testing techniques. Another significant difference is that PXT Select is not available in the Dutch language.
Reliability and validity
The PXT Select has been repeatedly tested for reliability and has a Cronbach's Alpha score of 0.80 per scale, indicating high consistency in measurements. The test also undergoes regular validation processes to ensure that it accurately measures what it is supposed to measure and performs well compared to other recognized assessment instruments.
Usage Advice
The PXT Select is designed to provide in-depth insights and support gut feelings with hard data, leading to meaningful discussions and better decisions. We recommend incorporating the research results as a third factor in the selection of candidates, ensuring a balanced approach where both quantitative and qualitative data play a role.
