The Practicality of Behavioral Observation Scales, Behavioral Expectation Scales, and Trait Scales.
Wiersma, Uco; Latham, Gary P.
Personnel Psychology, v39 n3 p619-28 Aut 1986
The practicality of three appraisal instruments was measured in terms of user preference, namely, behavioral observation scales (BOS), behavioral expectation scales (BES), and trait scales. In all instances, BOS were preferred to BES, and in all but two instances, BOS were viewed as superior to trait scales. (Author/ABB)
