Abstract

Abstract : This study details the development of behaviorally anchored rating scales (BARS) for use by self, peer, and supervisory raters, which could be used for assessing the performance of Navy Machinist's Mates (MMs). Four steps were involved: (1) identifying and describing general and task level job performance dimensions, (2) generating performance examples and developing unique behavioral anchors for each of the dimensions, (3) constructing a set of rating forms and assembling them into rating administration packages, and (4) conducting a pilot test of the BARS on a sample of MMs. Results, while limited by sampling constraints suggest that both the general and task level performance rating scales are operating within acceptable limits. A recommendation that the BARS be included in a large scale field test to be administered to fleet MMS is presented. Keywords: Performance measurement, Joint service project, Naval personnel, Theses.
