The influence of independent self-construal on rater self-efficacy in performance appraisal

摘要

This paper extends current knowledge on the use of performance evaluations in organizations by investigating the influence of self-construal on rater self-efficacy. Results from a survey completed by 105 experienced managers indicate that independent self-construal is related to various dimensions of rater self-efficacy. Moreover, experience with appraisals was found to moderate these relationships. The implications of these findings for the research and the practice of performance appraisal are discussed.
