Abstract

The above item was given in the late 1930s to German employees to measure something else other than cognitive ability (e.g., planning and organizing). It illustrates that situational judgment tests (SJTs) have been used outside the United States for quite sometime. Early international applications of SJTs can also be found in the so-called cultural assimilators in cross-cultural training programs (Bhawuk&Brislin,2000). In these cultural assimilators, future expatriates are presented with written situations of an expatriate interacting with a host national and are asked to indicate the most effective response alternative.
