Self-Appraisal in Performance Evaluation: Development Versus Evaluation

Abstract: Self-appraisal (SA) may complement evaluative supervisory ratings. SAs also may be used to help employees improve their job performance. This review (a) explains why research on the evaluation function of SA has provided such poor results, (b) suggests modification in SAs that may increase their developmental effectiveness, and (c) reviews two theoretical orientations which justify the belief that SAs can improve job performance.

Halo and performance appraisal research: A critical examination.

Abstract: The different conceptual and operational definitions of halo are reviewed, and problems when using halo as a dependent measure in performance rating research and practice are pointed out. Four major points are emphasized: (a) There is no agreed on conceptual definition of halo; (b) the different conceptual definitions of halo are not systematically related to different operational definitions (i.e., measures) of halo; (c) halo measures may be poor indexes of rating quality in that different halo measures are not strongly interrelated and halo measures are not related to measures of rating validity or accuracy; and (d) although halo may be a poor measure of rating quality, it may or may not be an important measure of the rating process

Marital Conflict, Parent-Child Relations, and Youth Maladjustment A Longitudinal Investigation of Spillover Effects

Abstract: Contemporaneous and longitudinal associations among marital conflict, parentchild relationship quality, and youth maladjustment were examined using data from the National Survey of Families and Households.Analyses were based on 551 married families with a child age 5 to 11 years at Wave 1. The concurrent association between marital conflict and youth externalizing problems at both waves was mediated completely at Wave 1 and partially at Wave 2 by harsh discipline and parent-youth conflict. The concurrent association between marital conflict and internalizing problems at both waves was mediated partially through parent-youth conflict. Longitudinal mediating effects were detected through stable marital conflict over 5 years and through its connection with parent-youth conflict. Findings delineate areas of specificity and stability in marital conflict processes as children transition from middle childhood through adolescence.
