  • Abstract
    In order to maximize performance appraisal effectiveness, extant literatures explore methods to reduce rater errors, improve rating accuracy and qualitative aspects. Even if these methods can substantially improve performance appraisal effectiveness, it is still unable to completely eliminate the existing of deviant ratings because the raters are subjective factors for the evaluation. This study introduces a statistical method that can effectively identify and eliminate deviant ratings, thus greatly improving the effectiveness of performance appraisal. Limitations of the method and future research directions are also discussed.
