Performance management and assessment: Methods for improved rater accuracy and employee goal setting
探讨了评估者准确性和目标设定领域的研究与实践差距，提出基于理论的方法帮助评估者识别预期绩效，并让员工自我调节目标追求，最后给出绩效管理项目的应用和评估建议。
Abstract This article examines the gaps between research and practice in the areas of rater accuracy and goal setting. Prior research has shown that human resource managers may incorrectly believe that training raters to recognize errors will increase rater accuracy and that employee participation in goal setting is more effective than assigning goals. Theory‐based research suggests ways to help raters recognize expected performance and enable employees to self‐regulate their pursuit of goals. We describe applications of these findings to performance management programs and suggest methods for evaluating their effectiveness once implemented. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
