In table 1 (available from author) we present the final round item-placement ratios for the constructs using format,
which provides additional insight into the performance of the proposed measurement scales.
Each of the organizational aptitude and performance constructs is listed on the rows of the table.
Let us examine, for example, the Project management construct.
It has 6 items, so perfect item placement for this construct would be a score of 30 (6 items x 5 judges).
In this case, only 25 judge-items were classified as intended, while 5 were classified under not all relevant to any of the critical success factors.
The item-placement ratio for Project Management thus equals 25/30 or 83%.
According to [19] item placement ratio of 70% or greater is generally considered acceptable.
All of the constructs met or exceeded these criteria for the final sorting round.
