Abstract
ProMES, a method for the measurement and feedback of performance data is related to the concepts of goal setting and feedback (Locke, 1991; Locke and Latham, 1990), and to the concept of self-control (Bandura, 1991). The result is a model for self-management: the "accepted control loop". Whether practical applications of the ProMES method will lead to "accepted control loops" is believed to depend on the course of the development process. The ProMES method requires the explicitation of values. At the same time, the development process offers possibilities to test to what extent these values are consistently translated into behaviour. Depending on the results of these tests, one of three reactions to the ProMES method is more likely to occur: "acceptance", "compliance", or "rejection".
