Abstract

In response to calls for a more refined approach to personality measurement in personnel selection (Hough & Oswald, 2015), we used latent profile analysis to identify constellations of traits that predict performance. Results indicate that several profiles predict important outcomes such as performance and socially desirable responding to selection tests.
