GRAPHIC RATING SCALE (GRS)
In a Graphic Rating Scale, the rater assesses a
ratee on performance-related characteristics and
personality characteristics,
For eg.
“I saw Mishra closing the steam line valve at the
instant the pipeline burst. We could save a lot of
lives due to the above factor.”
CRITICALITY OF THE METHOD..
This forms the basis for developing a lot of
the other formats that are used for
performance assessment.

RECORDING CRITICAL INCIDENTS
Should be Specific
Focus on Observable behaviours that
have been exhibited on the job
Describe the Context in which the
behaviour occurred
Indicate the Consequences or Outcomes
of the behaviour

THE NEED
Despite the sophisticated methods of new
rating formats (e.g BARS), deliberate
distortion of ratings still remains. Such
distortion , undermine the purpose of the
appraisal system.
What is the Forced Choice
Method ?
A rating technique specially designed to increase
objectivity and to decrease biasing factors in
ratings.
It comprises of the use of statements that are
grouped into sets according to certain statistical
properties.
Rater is “forced” to select from each group of
statements a subset (usually 2) of those
statements that are “most descriptive” of each
ratee.
For eg.
Gives good clear instruction to subordinates
Can be depended upon to complete any job
assigned
