Individual Psychological Assessment (IPA) has gained in use and in value to organizations in the management of human resources. However, even though IPA is considered a core competency for industrial–organizational (I–O) psychology, its practice is not without critics. It is a tool used to help organizations make decisions about hiring, promotion, and development. A typical individual psychological assessment consists of professionally developed and validated measures of personality, leadership style, and cognitive abilities among other things.
