| Abstract: | A pretest-posttest design was used at a large telecommunications firm whereby a 6-month interval separated the first and second rounds of an upward feedback administration. The purpose was to examine outcomes including perceived usefulness of the process, additional feedback-seeking behavior on the part of recipients, and optimal uses of upward feedback information. Results indicated that managers who receive lower formal appraisal scores from their bosses are more likely to perceive an upward feedback process to be useful. |
