High-rigor advisory and implementation support for evidence-heavy work.

Measurement-validity & EU AI Act advisory

Scientific credibility for the instruments you ship - without hiring a full-time psychometrician.

Ed-tech, HR-tech, assessment, coaching, and well-being companies whose personality, skills, or well-being instruments need a defensible scientific footing for enterprise procurement, investor diligence, and the EU AI Act's documented-validity and bias expectations.

What it delivers

• A named senior psychometric advisor - credential and ORCID - on your site and pitch deck
• Instrument and scoring review: item quality, reliability, factor structure, differential item functioning and bias, and measurement invariance across the groups you deploy to
• Sign-off on the specific validity claims you make in marketing, sales, and procurement
• A standing validity dossier that maps each claim to its evidence
• Scoping for a full EU AI Act conformity audit when required

Delivered through AdriaMont Consulting; the scientific credential is personal.

Expert witness & independent validation

Independent opinion and testimony on whether selection and assessment tools are valid and fair.

Law firms, employers, and regulators in employment, adverse-impact, and algorithmic-fairness disputes across the EU, UK, and US, and in arbitral and regulatory matters.

What it delivers

• Independent written opinions and expert or rebuttal testimony
• Analysis of test validity and job-relatedness, adverse impact, and differential item functioning (DIF)
• Measurement invariance and equivalence across protected groups
• Assessment of algorithmic fairness in AI-based screening and selection tools
• Cross-cultural and cross-linguistic comparability of assessments

Engaged independently; a single conflict register means no opinion is given adverse to a company advised on retainer.
