Psychometric properties of the Machine Learning test

The metrics reported below are based on a sample size (N) of at least 1,000 candidates unless indicated otherwise.

Reliability: Cronbach’s alpha coefficient = .63

Face validity: Candidates rated this test as accurately measuring their skills (average score of 3.66 out of 5.00).

Criterion-related validity: Candidates with higher scores on this test received higher average ratings from the hiring team during the selection process (r = .44, N = 352).

For an in-depth look at interpreting test results, please take a look at our Science series articles: How to interpret test fact sheets (part 1): Reliability, and How to interpret test fact sheets (part 2): Validity.

For an explanation of the various terms, please refer to our Science glossary.
