What is the Hartman Value Profile exactly?
The Hartman
Value Profile consists of two lists of eighteen items that you
must rank individually. Taking page one, you rank those items
from 1-18. Then taking page two, you rank those items from 1-18.
The ranking process can be completed in 15 - 20 minutes.
S&A has online, Internet-based profile administration so that
the profile can be completed at any time of the day or evening.
The Hartman
Value Profile is based on the theory and science of valuing
created by Dr. Robert S. Hartman. As a science, there are
mathematical principles that provide the structure for the
analysis of valuing. The results of the HVP are derived from
these logical, mathematical norms and are not based on the
values of any specific population or group. Consequently, the
profile is not a test to be passed or failed. There is no one
right answer to the rankings of the two lists. The results have
no bias with respect to sex, age, race or creed or any other
socio-cultural classification. Honesty is the best criterion for
obtaining accurate results.
Advantages of
the HVP are:
-
Administration takes a short amount of time 15-20 minutes,
and can be completed online.
-
It is an
objective assessment which can not be biased. The profile
asks them do a ranking task and picks up their
decision-making pattern as they do the task. The
mathematical analysis can detect a randomly ranked list and
will not produce a report for a random ranking.
-
It is a
simple task to rank order 18 items and 18 statements
-
It is
non-obtrusive in that respondents are not asked to describe
themselves or their experience. People's privacy is
respected.
-
Users report
that the results have a very high face validity
-
HVP reports
are provided in English
-
The HVP rank
order forms are
available in multiple languages: English, Spanish, German,
Japanese and Romanian. HVP rank order forms in other
languages are being developed: Chinese, Arabic, Portuguese,
Dutch, French and Polish.
-
The HVP is
supported by research.
The HVP has
successfully been used for recruitment, professional and
personal development, teambuilding, succession planning and
relationship building.
