Abstract

The effects of participation in an assessment center program was studied in relation to the self-assessments made by candidates just before attendance in the assessment center program, immediately after participation in the assessment center program, and a half year after attendance in the assessment center program. The self-assessments of the candidates at these three different time periods were compared to the ratings they received from assessors during the assessment program in terms of accuracy. Unsuccessful candidates were observed to have greatly misjudged their performance effectiveness both before and after participation in the assessment center program, indicating the lack of adequate feedback systems after assessment.

Abstract

Research examining the effects of assessees' patterns of performance on assessor ratings of performance, assessor attributions of performance, and the accuracy of the ratings revealed that different patterns of performance were associated with different ratings, despite similar overall levels of performance. Results indicated that ascending and descending performance was attributed to motivational causes and was rated more accurately than consistently average performance. Results also showed that ascending performers were rated higher on leadership skills and decision making ability.
