Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The impetus for this volume came from the editors' belief that most current research and thinking about personnel selection and assessment in organizations considered only the perspective of the employer. The job applicant seeking to join the organization or the employee being considered for promotion or reassignment was typically given little attention from the designers of employment or assessment systems. They believed that this imbalance had several negative implications: 1. Organizational selection and assessment appeared to be the principal area within work and organizational psychology that had forgotten a basic tenet of the profession of psychology, namely, that the welfare of the individual is paramount. 2. A lack of concern for the individuals who were being assessed could result in additional criticisms of psychological assessment in employment settings. 3. The acceptability of selection and assessment devices and systems may impact in (largely) unknown ways on the decisions of individuals to apply for jobs or transfers, thus affecting the selection ratio and potential utility of such systems. 4. Individual reactions to the characteristics of assessment and selection devices could affect the accuracy of the information obtained about those individuals, adversely affecting the reliability and validity of resulting personnel decisions. Informally discussing these concerns with their professional colleagues, the editors found that others were similarly troubled. Their next response was to organize a three day conference bringing together a number of researchers in applied psychology to present papers and participate in discussions related to balancing individual and organizational needs in selection and assessment. Revisions of the papers presented at this conference form the core of this volume.

Download or read book Multiple Perspectives on the Effects of Evaluation on Performance written by Stephen G. Harkins and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2001-10-31 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the field of psychology, research areas often develop in relative isolation. Researchers in different areas are either not aware of, or seem to fail to see the relevance of findings from other areas even though it would seem that the findings are directly relevant to their own. One striking example of this is to be found in research that focuses on the effects of evaluation on performance. This volume integrates thinking from five different research traditions - Achievement Goals, Intrinsic vs. Extrinsic Motivation, Goal Setting, Social Loafing, and Social Facilitation - through the unique format of a give-and-take conversation between leading academics from each.

Download or read book The Effect of Achievement Goal Orientation and Perceived Ability on Willingness to Cooperate written by Emily Pearson and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Achievement orientation -- whether one is more disposed to mastery or performance goals -- impacts task selection, persistence, and willingness to cooperate. However, past research on cooperation has not distinguished between temporary, task-specific goals versus achievement goals as a stable orientation. Furthermore, past research has narrowly focused on potential collaborators who are similar in competency to the participant. The current study includes a direct assessment of achievement goal orientation as well as a more realistic setting that gives participants the opportunity to share their interest in working with individuals of different perceived competencies. Results indicate that achievement orientation may shift as a function of task demands. However, despite achievement goals, participants were more interested in cooperating with others who were perceived to demonstrate higher competency on a task.

This book was released on 1983 with total page 47 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three studies were conducted to investigate the effects of goal setting and feedback on quality and quantity performance dimensions of a task. The purpose of the research was to: (1) demonstrate the interactive effect of goals and feedback on performance, (2) investigate the effects of different types of feedback on motivation and learning in the presence of goals, and (3) explore the effects on motivation, learning and performance variables on allowing individuals the freedom to choose to receive feedback. In all three experiments, subjects used a microcomputer to respond to a proofreading task. The results indicated that goal setting and feedback do interact to affect performance and that the cognitive processes involved in the interaction are more likely to be strategy-oriented rather than motivational.
