Abstract
The U.S. Army has long been trying to develop a performance
appraisal system which allows selection boards at
Department of the Army to discriminate among officers (for
promotion, schooling, and assignments), while also providing
for the professional development and counseling of these
officers. The current Army Officer Evaluation Report (DA
Form 67-8), which was adopted in November 1979, is largely
based upon the concepts of management by objectives (MBO).
In order to determine the perceptions of Army officers
in the field concerning this OER, a sample of officers in
the grades of 0-3, 0-4, and 0-5 from three Army installations
in central California was surveyed by the authors. The
results of this survey show a high general level of support
for keeping the present OER, even though specific problem
areas do exist where the perceptions of the officers
surveyed differ significantly from published official statements
and policy.
