| Publisher Description: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Industrial and organizational psychology applies psychology to organizations and workplaces. These organizations and workplaces include for-profit businesses, non-profits, government agencies, and colleges and universities. Industrial-organizational psychologists contribute to an organization's success by improving the performance and well-being of its people. An I-O psychologist researches and identifies how behaviors and attitudes can be improved through hiring practices, training programs, and feedback systems. This book studies research methods used in and topics studied under industrial and organisational psychology including the classical test theory, the Likert scale, performance appraisal, and counterproductive behavior.
