Comparison between assessment center(AC) with the evaluation by complete model and computer model

Many people in organizations have positive beliefs about computers’ role in human resource system, such as fairness in selection and interviews. This belief spread to contexts such as evaluation in assessment centers (AC). However evaluation in AC make up by multistep procedure that vanish in computer evaluation that may deteriorate that. The aim of current research was to compare computer model of evaluation with traditional model include six step of group evaluators. Two separate study reported by two samples (N1=200 , N2=147) of managers of Isfahan ( private and governmental) organizations that were selected by convenience sampling. Instruments were contained 360 degree performance appraisal Questionnaire, computer instrument and force choice instrument and evaluators divided into two groups namely experts and novice. Findings indicated that complete model of human evaluators were superior to computer evaluation and also its indicators of reliability and validity are better. Given the results and the importance and usefulness of assessment centers, it is recommended to use of human evaluators rather than computer evaluation. It may be better to replace computer role in side of exercises instead of evaluation.
