dc.description.abstract Very little is known in terms of the possible biasing effects that AVI background visual cues may introduce to the selection process. This study examined the possible biasing effects of background setting on initial impression and final interview outcomes. Using a 3 (professional versus blurred versus personal background) x2 (high versus low quality applicant responses) between-subjects design, 400 Prolific participants rated one of six manipulated AVI recorded conditions. The results showed that initial impressions influenced final interview scores, and that applicant response quality had a significant main effect on final interview scores. Background setting was not associated with initial impression or final interview scores. These findings contribute to the literature by testing some of the theoretical elements included in the dual-process theory framework. The results also complement existing practical guidance provided to organizations and applicants seeking to reduce the potential biasing effects introduced by visible background features in selection processes. en_CA
