Abstract

Biodata has been studied and applied for more than one hundred years and is considered as an ideal personnel selection tool because of its high predictive validity and low adverse impact. In recent ten years, many scholars have devoted themselves to the research of biodata and obtained many beneficial results. This paper summarizes the research achievements of biodata in recent ten years from the perspectives of theoretical research progress and applied research progress, among them, the progress in theoretical research is carried out from three aspects: keying method, response faking and adverse impact. The applied research progress is carried out from three aspects: employee turnover, job performance and academic performance. Finally, this paper puts forward the future research direction of biodata: the further discussion of biographical data concept, the further integration of theoretical content, and the further refinement of applied research.
