Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0001-8640-4097 Predictive Validity, Applicant Reactions, and Influence of Personal Characteristics of a Gamefully Designed Assessment 2023 Access copy available to the general public Unrestricted The use of game-related assessments (GRAs) in personnel selection is increasing. However, the type of GRA under investigation should be considered. This study focuses on game-based assessments, which closely resemble leisure-oriented videogames. We specifically examined a serious game that assesses personality traits (assertiveness, sociability, tolerance, and rules). We analyzed its predictive validity, applicant reactions, and the impact of personal and job-related factors on scores. The study included 182 participants who played the GRA and completed a Big Five questionnaire. Findings revealed that the game predicts adaptive performance, offering incremental value over the Big Five (ΔR2 = .107). Additionally, candidates reacted more positively to the GRA in terms of comfort and fit, although the effect size was small (d = -0.1757 and -0.3119, respectively). Relating to personal and job-related characteristics, only job experience significantly affected the assertiveness score, albeit with a small effect size (d = -0.3870). info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA/S31-20D info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MICINN/PID2021-122867NA-I00 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by-nc-nd http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/ 2.4 2023 PSYCHOLOGY, APPLIED 52 / 113 = 0.46 2023 Q2 T2 0.842 2023 Social Psychology 2023 Q2 Organizational Behavior and Human Resource Management 2023 Q2 4.9 2023 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Fernández-del-Río, Elena Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-9645-8109 4009 740 Universidad de Zaragoza Dpto.
