碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 管理科學系所 === 105 === The purpose of this study is to develop and validate a situational judgement test for the interpersonal skills. After reviewing the literature, four domains were considered : communication, relationships building, cooperative problem solving and conflict management and 28 questions were created. A total of 407 valid samples were collected via internet questionnaires. The reliability of the entire test was .698. For evidences of construct validity, two dimensions of communication and coordination and relationship building were identified. For convergent validity evidence, the scale has weakly positive correlations with the communication skill scale, and three dimensions of the big five personality scale, including extraversion, agreeableness and conscientiousness. The scale also has weakly negative correlations with the neuroticism dimension. The scale has weakly positive correlations with the social desirability scale indicating the scale has social desirability bias and additional discriminate validity evidence is needed.
