【English】 Why do the evaluations an organization intends and the evaluations it actually conducts come to have different structures? This paper proposes the Evaluation Structure 3-Axis Model, which describes evaluation design along three axes: indicator basis (quantitative/qualitative), time horizon (short-term/long-term), and attribution (individual/organizational). The model analyzes both the behaviors that combinations of these axes encourage and the transformation of the evaluation structure itself. At its core is the view that evaluation structures direct behavior while the structures themselves change in response to visibility, evaluation cost, and decision-making demands. For eight evaluation configurations, the paper outlines the behaviors encouraged and the structural risks involved, and presents a transition diagram of transformations toward quantification, short-termism, and individualization. It also describes, as the “narrowing of the information environment,” the process by which behaviors adapted to an evaluation skew the information reaching evaluators toward existing criteria, thereby maintaining and reinforcing that evaluation method. Furthermore, using configuration profiles that describe an evaluation system as a distribution of weights across the eight configurations, the paper presents an analytical procedure that compares intended and operational evaluation and examines, in sequence, the discrepancy, the factors of transformation, behavioral convergence, and recursive reinforcement. This paper proposes a conceptual model and treats behavioral convergence, transition directions, and recursive reinforcement as conditional hypotheses.
