It's been a while since Psytech SA stood on a Society for Industrial & Organisational Psychology South Africa (SIOPSA) stage, and this year we're back with something we think practitioners will actually use.
- Did you know that roughly 5-9% of candidates sitting unproctored cognitive ability tests may be receiving AI assistance that materially changes their score? Practically, this means that in a pool of 1,000 candidates, that's 50–90 inflated results quietly shaping who gets shortlisted.
Catch us 23 July, 14:35–15:20, in the Diamond room, where Dr Pakeezah Rajab and Sarah Kempen will present “Protecting the Validity of Remote Cognitive Ability Testing: Behavioural Monitoring as Assessment Integrity Mechanisms”, and unpack what test integrity monitoring actually means for practitioners working under HPCSA, POPIA, and EEA right here in South Africa.
If you're at , come find us, we'd love to talk.
