Abstract:The utility of self-rating is examined compared to other diagnostic techniques. Both self- and supervisory assessment of training needs were collected from 200 managers and professionals using a discrepancy model. Self-ratings resulted in three independent factors as opposed to the single factor emerging from supervisory assessment. The two kings of assessment were not significantly related. It is probable that supervisors projected their own needs when identifying subordinates' needs. This is why we could see self-rating as an important component of a valid needs assessment process.
