The psychologist once did an experiment, invited a group of people to the laboratory to do research, drew three lines on the blackboard A, B, C, and then drew an X line next to it, it is very obvious that the X line is the same length as the B line, after his design, this group of people have ten people to be tested, only one of them is not aware of anything beforehand, and the rest of the nine are all his experimental assistants, and that's when the The quiz began.
The man who administered the test said, "Well, I'd like to ask you to go back to a very simple question, which of these three lines is as long as the X line? In fact, anyone with a little bit of intelligence would clearly see that the B line and the X line are the same length.
But when the question was asked, the nine people said in unison that it was A. But A is obviously longer than X, but everyone said A. The person being tested was flabbergasted. And he stopped talking. The person administering the test then said, "Why doesn't anyone seem to be talking? I have to ask again, which of these three lines is the same length as the X line? The test subject was about to answer when the nine people said, "A." The test subject was at a loss for words. He said, "What's going on, am I wrong?
After a few more minutes, the person administering the test said, "It seems that there are still some people who haven't answered the question, and we're asking all of you to answer it, so will all of you please tell me which of these three lines is as long as X?". That's when that one person said, "A."
That's right! That's right! You see it's not clear that we think X is the same length as A. Then the person administering the test asked the non-speaking testee, "Young man, do you think those two lines are the same length? The person thought for a moment, and then said with particular conviction, "I can see it, it's A. It's A that's as long as X.
There were 100 people tested, and 38% of them answered that A is as long as X. This is a famous psychology test. This is a famous psychological test called the Herd Test.
The fact is that in the end, on reflection, more than a third of the people would succumb to the pressure of the crowd and choose the wrong answer.
We often make this same mistake in corporate performance reviews. If a department manager feels that a person in his department is particularly good, he wants to give him a high score, but the person's interpersonal relationships outside are not good, so people outside say that this person is not good. At this time, the manager knows that he completed this year's target, very good more than everyone, but do not dare to give him a high score, this is called the herd mentality. Can pull his score down, because if you give him a high score, in the eyes of others on their own alternative, different, this herd mentality is really quite harmful, because it directly affects the fairness of the evaluation of employees. The fact is that the majority of the people in the world are not very good at what they do, but they are very good at what they do, and that's why they're not very good at what they do.
In fact, employees cialis especially want to know, they are doing a good job in the company, or do not do a good job, but the premise is that the company must have a fair appraisal system, so that he has a sense of identity.
If he found that the appraisers and blind spots, and recent behavioral bias, and from the crowd, so that they do not get a fair evaluation, this situation of employee turnover rate is higher than at any other time, and this is the department manager did not do a good job. So it's important to remind those who directly appraise employees to be wary of this misconception. ,
