Abstract

The Performance Appraisal System (PAS) has purposes that are oriented towards individuals and institutions to improve the performance of higher education. This study explores lecturers’ perceptions of the purposes of PAS. Data were collected via questionnaires from 269 lecturers at higher educational institutions in Indonesia. Confirmatory factor analysis was used for data collection. The results showed that the lecturer agreed that the PAS purposes would have an impact on lecturers and universities. Lecturers have a perception that PAS is the basis for management’s decision-making for promotion and reward, the process of documenting, and recognizing lecturers’ performance. PAS provides information about the weaknesses and strengths of lecturers and provides feedback for them. PAS also has role-definition purposes of providing clarity about the role of lecturers in higher educational institutions. Also, PAS is recognized by lecturers, which can support the strategic purpose of higher education. The results of this study provide information to universities to develop the performance appraisal system because lecturers recognize the important role of PAS in achieving university goals.
