Abstract
Members of 12 project teams in five organizations participated in a study that assessed their
self‐monitoring characteristics and level of satisfaction with their performance appraisal system. Overall,
taking part in self‐ratings and upward appraisals of team leaders was associated with greater levels of
appraisal satisfaction than was participating in peer evaluations. Self‐monitoring level was negatively
associated with appraisal satisfaction after controlling for level of ratings generated by peers, self, and
leader. The paper discusses results, and offers practical implications in light of the social and interpersonal
context that surrounds performance evaluation. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
