Understanding Occupational & Organizational Psychology



March 2005 | 528 pages | SAGE Publications Ltd

`This is a really useful and comprehensive textbook that will provide readers with all their needs as a primer in the field of occupational and organisational psychology' - Cary L Cooper, Times Higher Educational Supplement

`Provides excellent coverage of the main areas of Industrial, Work and Organisational Psychology. All main topics at the individual an group levels are covered… a highly competent, research based introductory text' - Professor Neil Anderson, University of Amsterdam

Understanding Occupational and Organizational Psychology is an invaluable resource for students doing a course in occupational and organizational psychology, either at third year undergraduate or Masters level. The text provides comprehensive coverage of the British Psychological Society's training requirements for becoming a chartered occupational psychologist, yet it is also compliant with European training guidelines for industrial, work and organizational psychology too.

This book will prompt and inspire further reading and research as well as ideas for dissertations, problem formulation and the creative application of knowledge to various situations. Ideal if you want to get ahead with your undergraduate study or get your foot on the ladder to becoming a fully-fledged scientist-practitioner.

Book contained more information than was covered in the course. It was listed as a supplemental book in the syllabus.

This book covers the eight areas of occupational psychology in excellent detail. I would certainly recommend this as an advanced book for my students.

A great all round textbook for Psychology students dipping their academic toes into the world of Occupational and Organisational Psychology. Full of key issues and debate.

Well organised, well written, but the content overlaps with the books that I already use, therefore little added values.

This is excellent text book for students of organisational psychology, covering all aspects of the discipline. The study boxes are particularly helpful for students, summarising key points from the chapters.

An excellent in-depth text for those of our Applied Psychology course who are intending to proceed to Occupational Psychology.
