relevant job characteristic
Ranking technique
Supervisors list the workers in order from highest to lowest
Paired‑comparison technique
Compares the performance of each worker with that of every other
person in the group
Forced choice technique
Raters are presented with groups of descriptive statements and are
asked to select the phrase in each group that is most descriptive of
the worker being evaluated
25
26. Rating Methods
Behaviorally anchored rating scales (BARS)
Appraisers rate critical employee behavior
Critical‑incident behaviors are established
These behaviors are used as standards for appraising effectiveness
The BARS items can be scored objectively by indicating whether the
employee displays that behavior
Behavioral observation scales (BOS)
Appraisers rate the frequency of critical employee behaviors
The ratings are assigned on a five point scale
The evaluation yields a total score
Management by objectives (MBO)
