Personnel Psychology
Auteurs : Luong Alexandra, Sprung Justin M., Zickar Michael J.
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.
