“…Although this value has been found to be notoriously low in various quantitative reviews (e.g., Harris & Schaubroeck, 1988;R. L. Heneman, 1986;Mabe & West, 1982) because it reflects overall standing in a given sample on the total instrument and not agreement in individual ratings, it is a useful measure to compute for comparison with previous research.…”

Individual differences in the construct of managerial self-awareness (MSA) -operationalized as congruence between self and direct reports' behavioral ratings-were examined in 134 high-performing (HP) and 470 average-performing (AV) managers obtained from 4 independent datasets. Results based on several different approaches to measuring ratings agreement indicated that HPs were significantly more managerially self-aware compared with AVs. This relationship was consistent regardless of data source, organization, or method of assessing managerial performance. No overall relationships were found between congruence and level of item importance, gender, management level, age, or tenure. When compared with other measures for assessing self-focus, the construct of selfmonitoring was found to be convergent with managerial self-awareness, whereas the construct of self-consciousness appeared to reflect primarily rating leniency effects. The article concludes with a comparison of the measurement approaches used, limitations, and suggestions for further study.

Abstract. We report on results of a paper-based lab study that used information on task performance, self appraisal and personal learning need assessment to validate the adaptation mechanisms for a work-integrated learning system. We discuss the results in the wider context of the evaluation of adaptive systems where the validation methods we used can be transferred to a work-based setting to iteratively refine adaptation mechanisms and improve model validity.

“…These included the anonymity of responses, as according to Henemen (1974), the leniency bias in performance evaluation is reduced with anonymous responses. In addition, Mabe and West (1982) suggested that the use of output criteria (as used in this investigation) are more in line with 'objective'…”
