Abstract:

This study explores the role of anonymity in performance evaluations of supervisors and coworkers. Factors related to a raters perceived level of anonymity adequacy are examined as well as the types of identity information concealed by raters during performance evaluations. Significant, positive relationships were found between anonymity adequacy and both the quality of supervisor performance and the relationship between the rater and his/her supervisor. Additionally, the names of other organizational members were the most frequent type of identity information omitted by raters during performance evaluations. In general, this study enriches previous research that examines anonymity in performance feedback by exploring the raters experience of anonymity when evaluating supervisors and coworkers.
