Performance Appraisal System Errors 1. Halo effect: This is when a strengths in one area of performance lead to a positive appraisal of the employee in all areas of performance without properly evaluating them separately. 2. Recency effect: This is when an employee's most recent performance is given more weight in the appraisal than their overall performance throughout the year. 3. Leniency or strictness bias: These are errors in which the manager either rates all employees too highly or too low

The most common CCT is a mastery test where the test classifies examinees as "Pass" or "Fail," but the term also includes tests that classify examinees into more than two categories. While the term may generally be considered to refer to all computer-administered tests for classification, it is usually used to refer to tests that are interactively administered or of variable-length, similar to [[computerized adaptive testing]] (CAT). Like CAT, variable-length CCTs can accomplish the goal of the test (accurate classification) with a fraction of the number of items used in a conventional fixed-form test.
