Subjective Appraisal as a Feedback Tool

Abstract

This report examines the accuracy of subjective appraisals of several aspects of task performance, including proficiency, difficulty, frequency, and criticality. The relative accuracy of subjective appraisals collected from various sources by various methods is discussed, and suggestions are developed for ways to increase the accuracy of these appraisals. The use of subjective data in an integrated feedback system is addressed, and suggestions for further research are offered. Findings should be of interest to training developers and evaluators.
