Introduction: Developing a fair and organized evaluation system with faculty members’ own participation, could lead to faculty members’ more satisfaction with evaluation. The goal of this study was to determine the effects of a participatory model of evaluation on faculty members’ perspective toward this model. Methods: In this pre-experimental study as one shot case study, 55 faculty members from School of Medicine were selected randomly. They were provided with a database through a designed software by which they could make their own evaluation forms. Then, their viewpoints toward this intervention were asked using a 21 item questionnaire with Likert scale. The data was analyzed by SPSS software, 11.5 edition using mean, standard deviation and also t-test, ANOVA and Pearson correlation coefficient. Results: Eighty four percent of the selected sample participated in the study and designed their individuali-zed questionnaires. The mean and standard deviation of faculty members’ viewpoints towards this model were 4.02±.5 out of the total score 5. The most scores belonged to faculty members’ viewpoints about a sense of participation and satisfaction from the presented model. Conclusion: It seems that using this model which requires faculty members’ most cooperation in the evalua-tion process can help to reduce their resistance against evaluation, increase their satisfaction and improve their responses towards evaluation feedback.
