Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Behavioral observation scales ask raters to directly observe and rate the frequency of specific behaviors exhibited by workers. This is different from graphic rating scales or trait rating scales, which focus on subjective ratings of employees' traits or overall performance. Objective performance measures can also be used, but they may not capture the specific behaviors that are critical to successful job performance. Observational research studies may involve behavioral observation, but they are a broader research methodology rather than a specific type of rating scale.
