Özet:

In recent years, a number of works have been published on different aspects of performance appraisal. Some of these works make literature review on performance management and performance measurement (Garengo et al., 2005; Taticchi et al., 2010; Neely et al., 2005), whereas the others focus on emprical work (Marri et al., 2000; Cocca and Alberti, 2010). On the other hand, there is no work which reflects current trend on the understanding of the performance appraisal in the literature. In this paper, we discuss the researchers and their works that shape current performance appraisal systems in the concept of historical development of the performance appraisal systems. Then, we make literature review for current stateof-the-art works in the performance appraisal systems. Therefore, we analyze 104 performance appraisal articles which are published in “Journal of Management” from 2000 to 2012 in our work. We classify the works with respect to its topic, publication year, sector, country and analysis techniques. Thus, we aim to determine current trends in the performance appraisal systems.
