When designing a diversity climate survey, which psychometric property ensures the tool consistently produces reliable scores across administrations?
Answer: Test-retest reliability
Test-retest reliability confirms the survey yields stable results when administered to the same group under similar conditions.
An organization notices that its inclusion survey response rates are consistently lower among employees of color. What should the trainer flag as a primary concern?
Answer: Sampling bias may distort findings
Differential non-response by demographic group creates sampling bias that skews overall inclusion scores.
Which approach best demonstrates ROI (Kirkpatrick Level 4) for a diversity training initiative?
Answer: Tracking promotion rates of underrepresented employees before and after training
