After reading Chapters 3 and 4 in your text, the article, “Self-Assessment and Dialogue as Tools for Appreciating Diversity”, and watching the required videos, consider the following: Testing and assessment are critical components of selection, recruitment, and the training and development processes in any business or organization. Organizations approach assessments in a multitude of ways. 

Research one of the following      evaluative protocols (based on your first name) that might be used by an      I/O psychologist or manager to assess an employee’s performance. 

H through R: An observational evaluation

Describe      the assessment/evaluation you have been assigned.

Apply       appropriate citations which may include your text, required article and       videos, website sources, and additional peer-reviewed articles. Explain      what the goal is of your assigned assessment/evaluation method. Analyze      the possibility of bias in your assigned assessment/evaluation method.

Does your       assessment suggest the potential of possible bias? Why? Describe      the potential effects your assessment/evaluation method might have on the      workplace (good and bad). Identify at least two strengths      and at least two weaknesses of the assessment that you discuss based on      your research. (Remember to cite your sources.)

Your initial post should be between 300 and 350 words.
