This conference assembled leading economists, psychologists and measurement specialists to examine and evaluate alternative approaches. Sessions are organized around three distinct but potentially complementary approaches. One approach\u00a0is based on traditional interviews, self reports, paper and pencil tests and observer reports. A second approach is based on how people perform in response to various incentives and situations in controlled settings, such as laboratories. A third approach uses manifest behaviors in uncontrolled \u201creal world\u201d settings to measure skills. Thus, this conference is organized in the three blocks, each dedicated to discussing the relative strengths and bene ts of each of these elicitation strategies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
