Make consequential surveys, assessments, scales, and competency systems more reliable, valid, interpretable, and fit for their intended use.
When the measure itself is uncertain
PrimeStata helps teams determine what a measurement tool can support, where its evidence is incomplete, and what to improve before relying on its scores.
Four ways to strengthen measurement
A focused engagement can begin with one pathway or connect several around the instrument, evidence, and decision at hand.
Define what should be measured and build an instrument suited to the audience and intended use.
Evaluate the evidence behind a measure and clarify how its scores can be interpreted.
Connect job requirements and competencies to practical assessment and selection processes.
Review and strengthen an instrument or measurement process already in use.
Typical deliverables
Deliverables are selected for the stage of the measurement system, the available evidence, and how the results will be used.
Analytical foundation
The approach may draw from these methods when the question, data, sample, and stage of development support them. No single method establishes that a measure is appropriate for every use.
Specialist, principal-led support
Russell Steiner, MA, PhD Candidate (ABD), brings professional Psychometrician and Director of Psychometrics experience, applied and doctoral I-O psychology training, and work across surveys, assessments, workforce measurement, and research. Engagements are principal-led, connecting technical interpretation to organizational decisions and clarifying what the available evidence does—and does not—support.
His doctoral research includes the development and validation of SATJES, a multidimensional job-engagement measure. SATJES is presented here as evidence of doctoral research in multidimensional measurement development. Any commercial application or broader use would require separate evaluation, documentation, and validation for the intended context.
Flexible scope
An independent review of an instrument, evidence base, scoring approach, or specific measurement concern, with prioritized recommendations.
A defined build or validation effort connecting constructs, items, evidence, scoring, documentation, and intended use.
Recurring psychometric analysis, monitoring, governance, and interpretation when sustained specialist capacity is useful.
