This study sought to examine three potential reasons for public-sector resistance to the use of unproctored internet testing (UIT) for administering preliminary employment tests. Utilizing a policy capturing design, this study examined the relative importance of perceived diffusion, test security/cheating prevention, and test type on current public-sector practitioners' likelihood of using UIT administered tests. Additionally, test-type was examined as a moderator of the relative importance of perceived diffusion and test security/cheating prevention on practitioners’ likelihood of using a UIT test. All three situational characteristics were found to be significant predictors of likelihood of using tests administered by UIT. Test type was found to be the most heavily weighted factor in public-sector practitioners’ decisions regarding UIT, followed by test security/cheating prevention. Test type was not supported as a moderator. Implications for researchers and practitioners involved in employment testing are discussed.
