Allred, Wallace; And Others – 1972
This simulation game begins with an introduction which lists the areas of study involved and presents some basic instructions. Rules and criteria for the simulation game are then presented, which state that each participant in the game is assigned a personality role, a position role, and a situation to which he will react. Descriptions of the…

Peer reviewedBiggs, William D. – Simulation and Games, 1978
The general management simulation game, Tempomatic IV is used in a comparison of ranking and relational performance evaluation procedures. Results indicate that the relational approach has clear advantages over ranking approaches, especially in generating more useful information. Also, reliance on mechanically generated scores can lead to…
