This article examines the incentive effects of interim performance evaluation when a worker has career concerns and effort is history dependent. Disclosure has two effects: it increases the variance of future effort, and it allows the worker to use current effort to influence his employer's belief about future effort, creating a ratchet effect. The article provides necessary and sufficient conditions for full disclosure to dominate no disclosure; shows that the optimal disclosure policy reveals output realizations in the center of the distribution, but not in the tails; and discusses the potential implications of the results for the analysis of performance appraisal systems.
