Perceptions or reality: Is multi‐perspective measurement a means or an end?

Tornow, Walter W.·1993·Human Resource Management

Abstract

This article takes an epistemological perspective on “perceptions or reality” when examining multi‐rater assessment measures as means versus ends and contrasts the scientist's and practitioner's perspectives. Multiple ratings—when used to map differences as well as similarities in perceptions about common reference points—can be powerful tools for individual or organizational development applications. The application of measurement tools for development purposes is quite different from the psychometric focus of measurement, however. In the latter, measurement becomes an end in itself; in the former, it is more a means to an end. © 1993 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
