The “halo/horn” effect:
– based on reports of prior performance
Restriction range:
– using the same rating for all components of
the evaluation
Rating nonperformance attributes:
– using behavior attributes when rating
nonbehavioral qualities
– Evaluate performance ONLY

Case
You sit down with your student on her last day of the
rotation although you’ve never been comfortable
giving evaluations. Knowing evaluations are
supposed to be balanced, you try to list several
positive things and then list problems. When you
mention that the student’s cardiac patient who spent
an extra day in the hospital because she didn’t track
down a stress test result in time on Friday before the
cardiology department closed, she angrily bursts out
how difficult it is on a team where no one will give
her any help. She also says that you haven’t spent as
much time reviewing write-ups with her as other
residents.
