rating errors are2 @
Lenienc3 r 0e-erit34 & eniency or severity on the part of the rater maes the assessment
sub&ective. ub&ective assessment defeats the very purpose of performance appraisal. Ratings are
lenient for the follo#ing reasons4
a) 1he rater may feel that anyone under his or her &urisdiction #ho is rated
unfavorably #ill reflect poorly on his or her o#n #orthiness.
b) He'he may feel that a derogatory rating #ill be revealed to the rate to detriment
the relations bet#een the rater and the ratee.
c) He'he may rate leniently in order to #in promotions for the subordinates and
therefore, indirectly increase his'her hold over him.
Centr.l ten!enc34 & 1his occurs #hen employees are incorrectly rated near the average or
middle of the scale. 1he attitude of the rater is to play safe. 1his safe playing attitude stems from
certain doubts and anxieties, #hich the raters have been assessing the rates.
H.l errr4 & % halo error taes place #hen one aspect of an individualAs performance influences
the evaluation of the entire performance of the individual. 1he halo error occurs #hen an
employee #ho #ors late constantly might be rated high on productivity and

overall rating. Rating employees separately on each of the performance measures and
encouraging raters to guard against the halo effect are the t#o #ays to reduce the halo effect.
R.ter e11ect2 @1his includes favoritism, stereotyping, and hostility. =xtensively high or lo# score
are given only to certain individuals or groups based on the raterAs attitude to#ards them and noton actual outcomes or behaviors3 sex, age, race and friendship biases are examples of this type of
error.
Prim.c3 .n! Re/enc3 e11ect04 & 1he raterAs rating is heavily influenced either by behavior
exhibited by the ratee during his early stage of the revie# period (primacy) or by the outcomes, or
behavior exhibited by the ratee near the end of the revie# period (regency). 5or example, if a
salesperson captures an important contract'sale &ust before the completion of the appraisal, the
timing of the incident may inflate his or her standing, even though the overall performance of the
sales person may not have been encouraging. Dne #ay of guarding against such an error is to as
the rater to consider the composite performance of the rate and not to be influenced by one
incident or an achievement.

conclusive research designs.
8onclusive Research tudies are more formal in nature and are conducted #ith a vie# to eliciting
