Common shortcuts in judging others

Halo effect - Drawing a general impression about an individual on the basis of a single characteristic.

Contrast effects - evaluation of a person's characteristics that are affected by comparisons with other people recently encountered who rank higher or lower on the same characteristics.

Stereotyping - judging someone on the basis of one's perception of the group to which that person belongs.

Employment interview - perceptual biases of raters affect the accuracy of interviewers' judgements of applicants

Performance expectations - self-fulfilling prophecy (pygmalion effect): the lower or higher performance of employees reflects preconceived leader expectations about worker capabilities.

Performance evaluations: Appraisals are often the subjective (judgemental) perceptions of appraisers of another worker's job performance.
