The critical incident method involves asking people familiar with the job to record specific behaviors that are particularly effective or ineffective for performing that job. This data can then be used to identify tasks that need to be performed for the job. The job inventory questionnaire asks for a list of tasks performed in a job, time sampling involves observing the job for a certain amount of time to identify tasks, and card sort involves sorting tasks into categories. While these methods may also provide information on job tasks, they do not specifically ask for information on effective or ineffective behaviors for performing the job.
