Clinical brief story

Uchida-Kraepelin performance test – Clinical brief story – (13) Signs revealed by the test results – Accounting department employee involved in embezzlement case

Case 13) Signs revealed by the test results - Accounting department employee embezzled

His Uchida-Kraepelin performance test Results showed that he gave many incorrect answers and showed an atypical curve(the many red circles in the graph indicate places where he made calculation errors). However, he made a good impression in the interview, so the company hired him.

After joining the company, he was assigned to the accounting department and was highly praised for his diligent work. However, he later embezzled money and was fired from the company.

This case shows the importance of carefully balancing test results with interview impressions when hiring. It may be necessary to reconsider the assignments and job content suitable for people with atypical curve.

The Uchida-Kraepelin performance test is a psychological test (performance test) in which single-digit addition is performed for a total of 30 minutes while changing the line every minute with a 5-minute break on the way.
If you connect the final calculation results for each minute with a line, a graph unique to the examinee will appear.
The upper part of the graph is the first 15 minutes, and the lower part of the graph is the second half 15 minutes.
The red polygonal line is the examinee's own curve, and the blue polygonal line in this case is the average working curve that averages the test results of modern Japanese people who have the same amount of work as the examinee.
By reading the red polygonal line, you can know the potential behavioral characteristics of the examinee.
