Abstract

Personnel assignment decisions involve ( a ) performance prediction of job success using test results etc., and ( b ) the determination of optimal allocations of individuals to jobs. A model is developed that integrates these two phases and obviates the theoretical difficulties introduced by their independent application. One form of the model requires value measurements that are beyond the scope of current techniques, making it necessary to present “information conditions” that may reduce the level of the required value measurements.
