POST a brief explanation of two potential impacts of using tests not linked to job analyses.
A properly constructed employment examination should result in test scores that predict job success and documentation that convinces the test reviewer that the scores will be valid. A validation study provides evidence to support the use of predictor scores (Drasgow, Whetzel, & Oppler, 2007). As you discovered last week, there are three legal strategies for demonstrating validity: criterion-related validity, content validity and construct validity. Content validity is often the basis for meeting legal and professional requirements. Content validity requires the test constructor to document the link between the job analysis and the selection process. What are the potential implications to an organization if a validation study is not conducted before a test administration process begins? What are the implications of weak validation procedures or incomplete documentation?POST a brief explanation of two potential impacts of using tests not linked to job analyses. Then, explain one consequence of using a misaligned testing process. Support your response with at least two examples from the current literature.

Please review it and comment on your area, as we know the coming project will be challenging. With everyones help, though, Im sure we can pull this off with a minimum of scope creep. I look forward to hearing from you before the meeting on Tuesday.This project involves moving our current in-house system to a cloud solution. We are not sure yet if were going to partner with an outside company to manage the cloud services or if were going to just rent space on Google, Amazon, Microsoft, or other cloud services. Ill expect a recommendation from each of you based on your area of expertise. Do your research and provide me the pros and cons of the option you are recommending. Be sure to share where you got that information, so I can take a look at your reasoning if I have questions. DO NOT just cut and paste what you find, but rather explain the pros and cons in your own words.Gantt Chart File [PDF]InstructionsRespond in amemo using the Word document template provided. There should be two parts to your response.Part 1The first part of your response is based on the research you complete determining whetherto go with a company to manage cloud services or to rent space with one of the well-established cloud services. Include the following:A list of the pros and cons to both options. You should have at least two pros and cons for each option.Your recommendation that is supported by your research.A list of the sources that informed your recommendation. Be sure that these sources are varied and from a variety of relevant perspectives. They should also be credible sources. For example, what Google claims their cloud service will do may not be the experience of a business using their service. In the same way, a small business may have a different experience with the same service a large business uses.Part 2The second part is the additions needed to the Gantt chart in your area of expertise. Consider what steps will need to occur in your area in order to make this project possible. Consider also the time it will take to complete each of the subtasks, keeping in mind the overall timeline of the project. Include the following:A list of subtasks that need to be added to your area of the Gantt chart. (For example, if youre a networking specialist, youll need to decide what youre going to do with the network to support the project. Are you going to hire an outside company to expand your network? Do you have the bandwidth youll need now that the system is going to be located in the cloud? How much time do you need to purchase equipment like an additional router or a better firewall?)A breakdown of any equipment that will be needed for each subtask and when it will need to be installed.Here are some questions to consider for each role as you write your response memo:If youre the IT Project manager, youll need to get recommendations from others on the team and then make your recommendation to the PM. What are the main considerations? Youll need to research and come up with some options.If youre the data analyst, do your research and find out what this transition will look like to the users in the company and your companys clients/customers.If youre the cybersecurity expert, what concerns do you have, and which methods will you use to secure the network and the cloud solution? What does the partner service provide and what will we need to do/know in the company, and what training will be needed for users?If youre a software designer, what interface will you need to create/adopt? How will the software youre using now change if we relocate to the cloud?If youre a data manager, how will the database platform change/adapt to the relocation? How will the data be packaged, secured, stored, transported, backed up, etc.?

Think about how social psychology and, specifically, Banduras social cognitive theory, explains how modeling affects cognitive development and behavior.
Whether we like it or not, we are exposed to environmental influences every day that shape our behavior and how we view ourselves. While the influence of media is undeniable, the first and most profound models of appropriate gender-specific behaviors are our parents or other primary caregivers.From a very early age, children begin to develop their gender identity by observing and emulating behaviors of same-sex caregivers. You can probably easily think of 3-4 behaviors you observed from a same-sex parent or caregiver that you continue to emulate to this day.
