Advantage and disadvantage of Critical Incidents Method

Question

Explain the advantage and disadvantage of Critical Incidents Method?

Answer 1

The strong point of critical incident method is that it focuses on performances and therefore, judge’s performance rather than personalities.

Its drawbacks are that too frequently they need to write down the critical incidents which is very time consuming and burdensome for evaluators, i.e., managers. Generally, negative incidents are more noticeable than positives.
