If you’ve taken a personality test before, you know it can be a tedious and frustrating process. The prospect of answering countless and repetitive questions leaves people disengaged—yet these tests continue to be taken by millions every year. However, as new HR technologies emerge, traditional tests seem increasingly out of touch. Why? Because they don’t tap into what we humans are best at: visual processing.
Visual tests are not completely new. Image-based tests like the Rorschach inkblot test (罗夏墨迹测试), which unearths unconscious aspects of the human psyche, have long been used by psychologists to explore personality. The use of images in personality assessments makes them more fun, seamless and engaging, but also has other added benefits.
First, using image-based assessments can reduce test taker fatigue because processing pictures requires less attention than processing text and is much faster. In fact, Potter and colleagues found that the brain can process the complex information within an image in only 13 milliseconds. This is a staggering 60,000 times faster than processing text alone! The reduction in test fatigue can lead to more accurate responses and better completion rates. Second, images not only tap into conscious processes extremely quickly but they also access the unconscious, and elicit faster and stronger preferences. Responses to images are more likely to be definitive. Third, image-based assessments are easier to digest for those who have difficulty reading or understanding text. This should make them more accessible to those with learning difficulties, less education or language barriers. Finally, a stronger reliance on images as opposed to text may be the better approach when trying to understand personality across cultures. Carefully selected images don’t require the kind of fine-tuning across languages and cultures that text requires, and are thus less prone to cultural misunderstandings.
Given the potential benefits of using images in assessment, it isn’t surprising that test designers have begun to use pictures and even videos. Although more work is needed to establish the full validity of the new generation of visual assessments, initial research looks promising. One thing is certain: we must find creative and interesting ways to measure personality and keep up with people’s increasing expectations of emerging technology.
Visual tests like these are becoming more common and critical now more than ever before, thanks to the evolution of technology and increase in new behavior and usage of devices. Rather than stick to traditional methods, it’s imperative that we start to embrace the benefits of mobile technology—allowing people to take and use image-based personality tests, quickly and simply, wherever they are in the world. Technology will continue to advance steadily as will the expectations of job applicants. Using advancements like image-based tests to capitalize on seemingly obvious facts (humans are best at visual processing!) will become the norm. Companies ignoring these trends will quickly get left behind.
The author holds the view that the new visual assessments______.
选项
A、should begin to use more videos
B、have been testified as fully valid
C、have good development prospects
D、are the best way to measure personality
答案
C
解析
观点态度题。本题考查作者对新的视觉测试的看法。定位段第二句说,尽管建立新一代视觉测试的充分有效性还需要更多的努力,但最初的研究看起来还是大有希望的,可见作者认为其发展前景是好的,故C)为答案。A)“应该开始使用更多的录像”,虽然作者提到新的视觉测试中使用了录像,但是否应该扩大其使用,作者并没有提及,故排除;B)“其充分有效性已经被证实”,定位段第二句前半部分说,建立新一代视觉测试的充分有效性还需要更多的努力,B)所述与原文不符,故排除;D)“是测试性格的最佳方法”,文中虽然提到了新的视觉测试的若干优势,但是作者并没有说它就是最佳方法,故排除。
