Adverse Impact on Hispanic Job Applicants during Assessment Center Evaluations

Barry University

Several studies have evaluated the effects of sex and race on performance ratings in general, and ratings in assessment centers in particular. However, the relationship between Hispanic origin and assessment center ratings has not been studied. To investigate the relationship between Hispanic origin and assessment, data were collected from an assessment center that had both Hispanic and non-Hispanic candidates. This investigation has revealed a main effect for assessee origin (Hispanic vs. non-Hispanic) and a nonsignificant interaction between the ethnic composition of the assessor team and the ethnicity of the assessees.
