Limits in Generalization from Psychological Research to Performance Appraisal Processes
指出，社会心理学的实验方法可能不适合研究绩效评估中的特定问题，并讨论了这些方法在绩效评估研究中的适用性。
Most attempts to understand the performance appraisal process have borrowed from social psychology. It is argued here that the experimental methods of social psychological research may not be well suited to the study of particular issues in performance appraisal. Several of the methods used in the basic literature are outlined, and the relevance of these methods for the study of performance appraisal is discussed.
