The relationship among perceptual similarity, sex, and performance ratings in manager-subordinate dyads.
The relationship of perceptual similarity and sex in both manager and subordinate performance appraisals within manager-subordinate dyads was investigated. Perceptual similarity accounted for a sizable percentage of performance rating variance. Significantly lower performance appraisals were found in dyads in which there was mutual perceptual dissimilarity between managers and subordinates.
