Research

The Hogan Research Division is comprised of doctorate- and master-level professionals in Industrial-Organizational Psychology and is unparalleled in the industry.  Grounded in more than 30 years of research and scientific prediction, the Hogan Research Division plays a central role in applying our assessments to employee selection and development.

Companies want proof that assessments predict job performance. Hogan adheres to rigorous legal guidelines to provide clients with reliable conclusions about the value of their assessment program, based on results from several million working adults — an archive that is unmatched in the industry .

The archive also houses validation studies on more than 400 job titles, as well as evidence from over 250 criterion-referenced validation studies, with an additional 10 to 15 new criterion-referenced validation studies and 150 new client-research studies per year.

Hogan’s stringent research requirements include a sample size of at least 100 individuals, with tenure of at least 6 months, as well as availability of both subjective (single- or multi-source behaviorally- based ratings) and objective (turnover, sales revenue, absenteeism) performance measures, and multiple performance data points matched to each individual across 6-12 months

Along with the design and implementation of client research studies, the Hogan Research Division also provides extensive international support with new translations, equivalence analyses and international norms for the use of our assessments around the world.
