Prof. Leoni van der Vaart: Unpacking work motivation and performance
In this fascinating conversation, Leoni van der Vaart shares valued insights on the art and science surrounding the measurement and management of work motivation and performance. The two concepts are mutually reinforcing in the workplace and play a crucial role in ensuring that people are inspired by what they do and, based on this drive, demonstrate the necessary actions to remain contributing members of an organisation. <br /><i></i><br /><i>Corrigendum. Xander indicated that he mistakenly referred to introjected regulation (doing things out of fear of shame) throughout the podcast, while he intended to refer to more autonomous forms of external motivation (doing something because of a personal conviction in the importance of a stated goal). Leoni generously work around Xander’s misconception in the podcast and her references to self-determination theory throughout, by contrast, is correct.</i>

Dr. Karen Fuhrmeister and Dr. Brandon Ferrell: Dark Personality in Practice
Personality characteristics, often seen as universal adaptations that evolved in humans to meet the challenges posed by nature, might be misconstrued as something that people should always be higher on. While this statement might hold in many situations, the too-much-of-a-good-thing effect might be at play when people overuse their strengths. For example, an overly conscientious person might have a rigid perfectionism that their ability to finish and submit tasks in time. <br /><br />To use a Star Wars analogy, we often think of the positive outcomes associated with bright personality but might miss the negative outcomes associated with excessively low or high personality characteristics, which is associated with the dark side of personality. In this podcast, we will speak with two experts from Hogan Assessment Systems (Dr Fuhrmeister and Dr Ferrell) on how we should think about dark personality and apply metrics surrounding the measurement of dark personality in practice. <br /><br />Dr Fuhrmeister and Dr Ferrell have written an eChapter on the “added value of dark in selection” as part of a larger eBook that JVR Africa Group is compiling. Access to the eChapter can be obtained here: <a href="https://www.marketing.jvrafricagroup.co.za/dark-personality" rel="noopener">https://www.marketing.jvrafricagroup.co.za/dark-personality</a>.

Dr. Matthew Neale - Game-based assessments: their transformative possibilities and potential pitfalls
Game-based technologies are a transformational development in psychometric assessment. However, if psychologists do not do the required work in order to provide the scientific rigour of these methodologies, such as accumulated evidence on its reliability, validity, and measurement equivalence, its potential might be left as a fad. We are excited to speak with Dr Matthew Neale, Vice President of Assessment Products at Criteria Corp and expert on the scientific rigour required to develop game-based psychometric assessments.<br /><br />Dr Neale holds a PhD from Queensland University of Technology and is a practising industrial-organisational psychologist. He is the immediate past state chair of the APS College of Organisational Psychologists in Queensland, where he led the profession of Organisational Psychology in the state. He has a passion for people and organisational development projects informed by scientific research in industrial and organisational psychology.
