So what's the best alternative?

44W is a type of steel ( https://www.terranovasteel.com/structural )

Doesn't define the notion of a 'trait'. Most of the variables included in this analysis aren't traits in the psycho-social sense as an individual difference that's stable over time…

Folks there's good science on the topic of conscientiousness and work performance. Numerous meta-analyses. I'm not a fan of personality assessments for decision making in the workp…

As a funded research academic who's studied cognitive ability(ies) for 25+ years, there are too many wacky and mistaken statements in these comments. Intelligence (aka g or IQ) is …

Old school youtube...like letsdig18 and dirt perfect

Notice how there are no clear criteria for evaluation in this space? No math. No models. Just loose concepts strung together with words and sprinkled with calls to authority (e.g.,…

3 years in and Elixir still rocks!

Folks, there's so much cynicism here. If you want to learn and invest in yourself, do it! If you want to sit back and wait for your employer to invest in you, don't be surprised wh…

Maybe the lead made a mistake. Or, I hate to say it but...maybe OP isn't viewed as HiPo and worth the perceived investment. There's always another side to a story.

Mediation tests don't support causal inference. Sobel method is fine but rarely used now in the social sciences.

It's probably too late to contribute meaningfully to this conversation. But look at the tone of many of these comments. So many "know it alls." So many strong opinions about the ri…

Just an abstract. Limited or no peer review so be careful. Here's the text. Background: Chemopreventive effect of aspirin on colorectal cancer (CRC) has been reported, but there ar…

This was fun and all but it doesn't apply to modern academics. Now, if you 'disregard' you won't get grants and you won't be in academics long enough to make a contribute. Fun but …

This is exactly on point. Current "AI" is pattern matching without the notion of cause or object. There is no understanding or representation.

Baawaahhh!!!!

Wonderful. Thank you for sharing this. We spend so much time talking about the working conditions (open office, lighting, HVAC, etc...). The people and the work matter so much more…

Sure. Search for "structured interview meta-analysis validity" and you'll find a slew of the research on this topic.

It would be interesting to see if all 3 predictors of performance held up in a simultaneous regression. Most likely, the predictors are highly intercorrelated. If so, then only one…
