Researcher "projection" revisited: a response to Kahn
Article Abstract:
In a recent issue of this journal (The Journal of Applied Behavioral Science), Neck, Godwin, and Spencer (1996) analyzed a case study in an effort to highlight the problems of researcher projection from a conscious (attributive) projection perspective. Along with that article, Kahn (1996) provided a reviewer's comment in which he approached the issue from an unconscious (classic psychoanalytic) projection perspective. Due to the lack of a clear development and comparison of these two underlying projection frameworks, the relative contribution of each perspective remains unclear. Consequently, the purpose of this article is to attempt to bring clarity to the issue of researcher projection in interpreting data. (Reprinted by permission of the publisher.)

Thought self-leadership as a framework for enhancing the performance of performance appraisers
Article Abstract:
A seminal review by Ilgen, Barnes-Farrell, and McKellin (1993) of empirical performance appraisal research during the 1980s suggested that the research during that decade made a number of contributions to the performance appraisal field, but to a limited degree. This article attempts to overcome one of these limits in the 1980s appraisal research suggested by Ilgen et al. - that is, the investigation of the content of cognitive variables. Specifically, this examination is completed through the application of a cognitive process recently introduced in the management literature, thought self-leadership, to the performance appraisal process.
