| Abstract: | The performance appraisal literature categorizes three primary non-performance factors that managers consider when rating employee performance: (a) Potential negative consequences of ratings, (b) organizational norms, and (c) the opportunity to advance self-interests. Using a policy-capturing methodology, the current study investigated if these three non-performance factors, as well as individual rater differences influence performance ratings. A sample of 303 experienced managers rated the performance of a fictitious employee. Using hierarchical linear modeling, the results revealed that each of the three non-performance related considerations accounted for variance incremental to objective employee performance. Managers' performance appraisal experience also predicted ratings, such that more experience was associated with lower ratings. |
