      abstract     = {The RWTH Aachen University has been developing a web-based
                      self-assessment student guidance system since 2002. The
                      programme is based on cognitive tests and non-cognitive
                      questionnaires and has the long-term goal of increasing
                      success rates, in particular in Computer Sciences and
                      Electrical Engineering. This work provides information about
                      the background to the development, the construction of the
                      test battery and technical implementation as well as
                      empirical evidence regarding the quality of the test and
                      acceptance by the participants. An extreme group comparison
                      between interested Computer Sciences students and Humanities
                      students was carried out to determine which components of
                      the test battery were capable of differentiating between
                      these groups. The non-cognitive questionnaires where then
                      able to explain more variance in the correlation than was
                      possible with the cognitive tests. In addition, the validity
                      of the test battery was also examined by means of a census
                      of new Computer Sciences students at the RWTH Aachen
                      University (n = 594) using two criteria: student grades and
                      the number of exams passed. The cognitive test components
                      (deltaR = 0,196) alone and a combination of the cognitive
                      and non-cognitive components (deltaR = 0,291) demonstrated
                      an incremental validity for predicting university grades
                      from the Abitur (German high school graduation) grades (R =
                      0,304). The reported empirical basis will be used to form
                      recommendations for the development and implementation of
                      web-based student guidance systems as well as scholastic
                      aptitude tests for student selection.},
