In a changing South Africa, with its increasing emphasis on individual rights, fair and equitable selection techniques are a priority. The target population for this investigation was four consecutive groups of first-year Personnel Management students who were enrolled for the National Diploma: Personnel Management. The survey population consisted of 293 students. The aim of the study has been achieved by the proof that specific fa:tors of fields of the measure instruments do have prediction validity. These findings can be used with fruit in search of a selection model for academic achievement.
