Abstract
M.Com. (Industrial Psychology)
Behaviorally anchored performance appraisal research concentrates
mainly on the development of a scientifically verifiable instrument.
The recommendations made in these studies to enhance the
effective and practical use of the systems are, however, normally
neglected in further studies. Performance appraisal entails
more than just the development of a superior psychometric system.
Therefore more attention should be paid to the success of the total
performance appraisal approach rather than the individual instrument.
