| Abstract: | The problems of evaluating a test when it is being used are discussed. Data are presented for a test when "in use" and in a "give but don't use" condition. Emphasis is placed upon the effects of indirect curtailment when a test is being correctly used with other valid selection instruments. This phenomenon presents problems both for evaluating a test and for the appropriate weighting of tests in a battery. This may be a major problem in applied selection research programs.
