THE CORE SELF‐EVALUATIONS SCALE: DEVELOPMENT OF A MEASUREPersonnel Psychology, 56
Purpose – Describes and explains features of the measure named core self-evaluation (CSE). Reviews current information and research concerning CSE and its value in identifying potential employees who have personal dispositions that are typically desired in an employment setting. Offers suggestions for business people. Design/methodology/approach – Examines research and opinion for the past several years. Summarizes information to help business people regarding the content and linkages of the CSE measure. Findings – Explains that, in the past 15 years, a body of more than 150 research studies has reliably established that the personality measure CSE has many positive linkages with valued employee attitudes and/or behavior such as job performance; voluntary, helpful employee behavior; job satisfaction; and life satisfaction. Practical implications – Reveals that the measure – a short, 12-item survey – has strong statistical properties per validity and reliability and is economical, is easy to administer and score and provides an added dimension to what we may learn about job applicants. Social implications – Advances the view that the use of the measure seems underrepresented in the human resource management field. Originality/value – Gives an overview and summary of recent research and opinion with regard to the CSE measure that is not readily available in other sources. While the measure of CSF is not an iron-clad predictor of employee attitudes and performance, the measure connects with many very positive personal characteristics that are usually valued in organizations.
