Formatted contents note PREFACE xvi<br/>PART ONE INTRODUCTION<br/>In this first section we discuss the field of industrial/organizational psychology, learn what it <br/>is, and examine its history. The second chapter is an overview of social scientific research <br/>methods, and how this methodology is used by I/O psychologists. This section sets the <br/>groundwork for what is to come.<br/>1. Introduction: Definitions and History 1<br/>2. Research Methods in Industrial/Organizational Psychology 18<br/>PART TWO PERSONNEL ISSUES<br/>In these four chapters we will take a "tour" of personnel functions in organizations. We will <br/>examine how jobs are analyzed, how workers are recruited and selected for jobs, how <br/>workers' job performance is evaluated, and, finally, how workers are trained.<br/>3. Job Analysis 54<br/>4. Employee Selection 79<br/>5. Evaluating Employee Performance 123<br/>6. Employee Training and Development 152<br/>PART THREE WORKER ISSUES<br/>These three chapters will examine important psychological states that influence employee <br/>work behavior: the motivation to work, the satisfaction one gets from a job, and the stress that <br/>occurs because of job demands. These three states represent the vital issues of why people <br/>work and what happens to them internally because of work rewards and demands.<br/>7. Motivation 183<br/>8. Job Satisfaction and Positive Employee Attitudes <br/>& Behaviors 213<br/>9. Worker Stress and Negative Employee Attitudes <br/>& Behaviors 245<br/>PART FOUR WORK GROUP AND <br/>ORGANIZATIONAL ISSUES<br/>In the next five chapters we will examine how workers interact in the formation of work <br/>groups and larger work organizations. The study of this interaction of workers and work <br/>groups comprises a good part of the area within I/O psychology known as organizational <br/>psychology. In reviewing organizational issues, we will start small, looking at communication <br/>between two workers, and finish big, examining how large work organizations are designed <br/>and structured.<br/>10.
