Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Behavioral observation scales involve observing and rating specific behaviors exhibited by workers, which makes them the best option for rating the frequency of behaviors representative of critical job dimensions. Observational research studies are broader in scope and may not be focused on specific behaviors, while performance rating scales and objective performance measures may not capture the frequency of specific behaviors. Trait rating scales are also not directly relevant to rating behavior frequency.
