Study Notes
Campbell's Model of Job Performance: Determinants
- Declarative Knowledge (DK): Involves understanding what tasks need to be performed; knowledge about job requirements.
- Procedural Knowledge and Skill (PKS): Refers to the ability to execute tasks developed through practice and experience.
- Motivation (M): Relates to the factors that influence the intensity, persistence, quality, and direction of behavior.
- Variables like ability, personality, and interests indirectly impact performance by influencing levels of DK, PKS, and M.
Campbell's Model of Job Performance: Components
- Core task proficiency, demonstrating effort, and maintaining personal discipline are essential across all jobs.
- Eight performance components exist, with some or all applicable in different roles.
- Performance components include:
- Job specific task proficiency
- Non-job specific task proficiency
- Written or oral communication
- Consistency in effort
- Personal discipline, avoiding negative behaviors
- Supervision/leadership proficiency
- Management/administration tasks
Criterion Deficiency and Contamination
- Ultimate Criterion: Represents the optimal measure of all job performance aspects.
- Actual Criterion: The tangible measure of job performance obtained.
- Difference between ultimate and actual criteria indicates measurement flaws:
- Criterion Deficiency: Missing relevant information in actual criteria.
- Criterion Contamination: Includes irrelevant information not related to the behavior being measured.
Extensions of Basic Performance Model
- Task Performance: Doing what is required based on job specifics, influenced by individual abilities and knowledge.
-
Contextual Performance/Organizational Citizenship Behavior (OCB): Exceeds job expectations, supported by personality traits, and endorses organizational environment.
- Altruism: Helpful behavior towards individuals/groups in the organization.
- Generalized Compliance: Supportive behaviors benefiting the broader organization.
- Adaptive Performance: Flexibility and capability to adjust to changing conditions.
- Expert Performance: Demonstrated by individuals with over 10 years of practice, averaging four hours daily in deliberate practice.

-
Types of Job Analysis:
- Task-oriented Job Analysis: Begins with a clear statement of actual tasks and their accomplishments.
- Worker-oriented Job Analysis: Focuses on the necessary worker attributes for task completion.
-
