Abstract
Contrairement aux attentes theoriques les resultats empiriques donnent de faibles correlations entre mesures des «alternatives percues» et la «rotation professionnelle». 3 problemes methodologiques sont souleves pour ameliorer la predictivite des alternatives percues: variance inter-versus-intra professionnelle (probleme de l'homogeneite des echantillons), effets attenuants du taux de rotation de base et instruments non adequats. Discussion des solutions potentielles

Although errors can be highly informative about the process of judgment in general, they are not necessarily relevant to the content or accuracy of particular judgments, because errors in a laboratory may not be mistakes with respect to a broader, more realistic frame of reference and the processes that produce such errors might lead to correct decisions and adaptive outcomes in real life.
