Abstract
The development of forms for appraisal of Metropolitan Life Insurance Company assistant managers is described. Intercorrelation for different samples between two sets of 52 selected items for 1008 cases was .95. Odd-even reliability based on all cases was .93, which gave .96 when corrected for double length. Validity, as determined by correlating appraisal scores with certain criterion scores for all cases, was .52 when corrected for attenuation. For this type of appraisal the results proved very satisfactory. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)
