For this reason, it does not hire applicants with typical work curves, instead giving priority to highly capable applicants whose curves tend toward atypical patterns.<\/p>\n<p>On one occasion, when only members of the technical division took the Uchida-Kraepelin Test, a distinctive tendency was observed: their amount of work at the start of the second half was lower than that of a typical work curve.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Here is a case example from the Uchida-Kraepelin Test.<\/p>\n<p>The Uchida-Kraepelin Test is a psychological test using a work-performance method. Examinees perform single-digit addition for a total of 30 minutes, changing rows every minute, with a 5-minute break between the two halves.<\/p>\n<p>Connecting the final calculation position for each minute produces a graph characteristic of the individual examinee.<\/p>\n<p>The upper graph shows the first 15 minutes; the lower graph shows the second 15 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>The red line is the examinee\u2019s own work curve. In this case, the blue line is an average work curve calculated from the test results of contemporary Japanese examinees with a similar amount of work to that of the examinee.<\/p>\n<p>Interpreting the red line provides insight into the examinee\u2019s latent behavioral characteristics.<\/p>\n<p class=\"uk-editorial-note\">Editorial note: This is a case from the Japanese source article, not a universal hiring rule. \u201cTypical\u201d and \u201catypical\u201d refer to work-curve patterns, not medical diagnoses or a person\u2019s value. An atypical curve alone does not demonstrate creativity or engineering ability. Amount of work means output in this test, not job productivity itself. The Japanese comparison average is not automatically a norm for other populations. Hiring and placement require consideration of skills, experience, work observations and job requirements alongside test results.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This page has been automatically translated from Japanese using generative AI.
