- Summary
-
Job evaluation has been described as a psychological process closely resembling those which have been subjected to experimentation both in the laboratory and in practical situations. It is based on the psychophysical method of single stimuli. Predictions from previous research indicate that the evaluation of job receives is most reliable when it is judged in a group with other jobs, and that the composition of this group influences the evaluation it receives. If the presence of these context effects in job evaluation is verified, the next step is to design an adequate procedure for their control. Determination of the optimal method of representing the job to the rater and an examination of the effects of residual factors, such as familiarity of the rater with the job being rated, may also suggest changes in current job evaluation procedures. All of these phenomena should be considered in their relationship to Air Force job-evaluation procedures.
