Description
Accessible and engaging, this textbook introduces students to the field of personnel psychology, also known as industrial psychology.
Based on their years of teaching in this area, Luong, Sprung, and Zickar survey core topics in the field, including job analysis, recruitment, selection, assessment, and performance evaluation. Throughout, they emphasize a psychological - rather than management - approach, explaining the key psychological principles that underpin human resources practices. Supported by plentiful examples, review questions, and discussion questions, this comprehensive overview shows how personnel psychologists endeavor toward a better workplace.
Written in a clear and captivating style, this book introduces students to the most recent and pertinent scientific research in personnel psychology, and inspires future study in industrial-organizational psychology and related fields.
