In addition to the research applications in differential psychology and applied psychology, the major applications of the AMI are for personnel selection, personnel development, professional counseling in regards to job decisions, and psychology in sports. For personnel selection, the application of AMI might result in incremental validity to traditional methods such as the assessment center, employment interviews, biographical questionnaires and tests of general cognitive abilities or integrity. The AMI profile gives insight into an individual's achievement motivation structure and enables a precise and reliable evaluation of all major aspects of job-related achievement motivation. The AMI is a very broadband diagnostic procedure that covers all dimensions considered to be a part of achievement motivation. It provides a psychological instrument of high scientific and practical impact for the study of work and its psychological components that allows the researcher, counselor, or personnel assessment specialist to choose the facets of achievement motivation most relevant to alternative applications.
