  • The Disparate Impact of the NFL's Use of the Wonderlic Intelligence Test and the Case for a Football- Specific Estt Note
    University of Connecticut OpenCommons@UConn Connecticut Law Review School of Law 2009 Fourth and Short on Equality: The Disparate Impact of the NFL's Use of the Wonderlic Intelligence Test and the Case for a Football- Specific estT Note Christopher Hatch Follow this and additional works at: https://opencommons.uconn.edu/law_review Recommended Citation Hatch, Christopher, "Fourth and Short on Equality: The Disparate Impact of the NFL's Use of the Wonderlic Intelligence Test and the Case for a Football-Specific estT Note" (2009). Connecticut Law Review. 38. https://opencommons.uconn.edu/law_review/38 CONNECTICUT LAW REVIEW VOLUME 41 JULY 2009 NUMBER 5 Note FOURTH AND SHORT ON EQUALITY: THE DISPARATE IMPACT OF THE NFL’S USE OF THE WONDERLIC INTELLIGENCE TEST AND THE CASE FOR A FOOTBALL-SPECIFIC TEST CHRISTOPHER HATCH Prior to being selected in the NFL draft, a player must undergo a series of physical and mental evaluations, including the Wonderlic Intelligence Test. The twelve-minute test, which measures “cognitive ability,” has been shown to have a disparate impact on minorities in various employment situations. This Note contends that the NFL’s use of the Wonderlic also has a disparate impact because of its effect on a player’s draft status and ultimately his salary. The test cannot be justified by business necessity because there is no correlation between a player’s Wonderlic score and their on-field performance. As such, this Note calls for the creation of a football-specific intelligence test that would be less likely to have a disparate impact than the Wonderlic, while also being sufficiently job-related and more reliable in predicting a player’s success.
