Abstract
IT IS CONCLUDED THAT THE MOST ACCURATE AND EFFECTIVE METHOD IS PAIRED-CHOICE RATING, IN WHICH EVERY PERSON IS COMPARED TO EVERY OTHER PERSON BEING RATED. A STUDY OF ITS USE IN THREE POLICE DEPARTMENTS OF VARYING SIZE, LOCATION, AND ORGANIZATION SHOWED THAT THE RATEES ARE AS CAPABLE OF PERFORMING THE EVALUATION AS THE SUPERVISORS.
