Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The current belief is that job analysis provides useful information but may be subject to potential biases due to their reliance on human judgment. Trained analysts are generally considered more valid than relying on task inventories of SME's, and there is no consensus that job analysis conducted using interviews of SME's is more valid than those that rely on the use of trained observers. While it is ideal for job incumbents to be trained on how to rate their job before providing ratings, it is not necessary for job analysis ratings to be considered valid.
