Biography/Blurb

Dr. Gordon W. Waugh has over 10 years of experience in job analysis, test development, test validation, performance measurement, and certification testing. He has developed several situational judgment tests; three were for projects for the US Army Research Institute. He has presented some of his considerable research on Situational Judgment Tests (SJTs) at professional conferences. Dr. Waugh uses several advanced analytical techniques including factor analysis, structural equation modeling, survival analysis (i.e., event history analysis), classical item analysis, and item response theory (IRT) analysis. He occasionally writes computer programs in SAS to automate psychometric analyses (e.g., for the NCO21 and AT-SAT projects). He has also written a stand-alone computer program which is used during all phases of developing a multiple-choice test. Dr. Waugh has a Ph.D. in Industrial/Organizational Psychology from the University of South Florida.
