摘要
Psychological tests are widely used in Personnel Selection processes in Brazil. However, in many cases, studies that provide psychometric parameters are necessary to certify their validity and reliability to the organizational area. This research aimed to identify which psychological tests organizational psychologists are mostly using after the analysis realized by the Federal Council of Brazil in 2003. Nine companies of Minas Gerais participated of this study and their respective psychologists answered a structured questionnaire that was elaborated according to the goals of the research. The results revealed that personality tests have been being applied in a bigger proportion than intelligence tests. The results also revealed that 33% of the professionals have being using instruments considered inappropriate after the Council's analysis. Implications of the results to research and practical matters are being discussed.
