Answer to Question 1

Taken together, self-serving, social projection, and false consensus biases affect job analysis ratings because they lead people to believe that their own KSAs are those driving success in their jobs. So, these lead to an exaggerated view regarding the KSAs neededand this exaggeration is based on precisely the KSAs that job incumbents have. Given such, a rater training program helps participants converge onto a common point of reference, which is a point where the exaggeration is significantly mitigated. As a result, rater training program participants tend to provide significantly lower ratings for certain KSAs than do nonparticipants who tend to exaggerate those KSAs.

Answer to Question 2

Thank you

Answer to Question 3

F: Depending on the performance areas being rated, peers, subordinates, or customers may be better suited to rate performance.
