The first question in your examination paper requires you to declare that the following
statement (see below) is true:
“I declare that the work I submit in this examination is my own. I am not assisted by
somebody else in formulating my responses, neither am I assisting a fellow student in
formulating their responses.”
NOW ANSWER QUESTION 1
NOTE: If your paper does not contain a “True” response (i.e. Option A) to this
question, your examination will be nullified.
After answering Question 1 read the following scenario
The scenario
You own a company specialising in psychological consultation. The company is called
PsyCorp. You employ a number of professional psychologists, as well as student psychologists
who do their practical at the organisation.
The South African Sports Association (SASA) has approached PsyCorp to assist in the selection
of a team of specialists who will make up the pit crew for the South African team at the 2017
NASCAR rally.
The consultation problem
At PsyCorp every day begins with a morning meeting to discuss the business of the day. The
meeting is attended by qualified psychologists working for your organisation as well as the
student psychologists. This morning’s meeting is attended by two of the senior psychologists,
Banti and Piet, and four student psychologists, Andy, Jill, Sarah and Mike. You chair the meeting.
You inform everybody that you were contacted by the head of the South African Sports
Association (SASA), Dr Mubiana, and that you met with her the previous afternoon. According
to Dr Mubiana South Africa will be represented at this year’s NASCAR Rally and SASA has
been tasked with assembling the pit crew that will accompany the South African team. Due to
the high risk nature of the work potential candidates need to be thoroughly screened for
psychological stability. This makes the selection process very difficult, especially because hard
evidence has to be produced to justify the selection of some candidates and the rejection of others.
This requires scientific and objective procedures. Dr Mubiana needs PsyCorp to assist with the
selection process.
During your meeting with Dr Mubiana she explained the selection process that is required. Pit
crew members need to be suitably qualified, academically and professionally, with at least five
years’ experience working in the pit as crew members. Apart from being suitably qualified pit
crew members also have to be of a particular psychological and behavioural profile. This profile
