Chapter One

Introduction to Organizational Psychology

The behavior of individuals acting as members of formal organizations has a tremendous impact on many aspects of our lives. Everything-the food we eat, the cars we drive, the houses we live in-depends on the coordinated effort of individuals in organizational settings. This impact, in fact, is so great that we typically take it for granted. In most cases, we only take notice when the results are either very good or very bad. For example, we marvel at the coordinated effort of a professional sports franchise that is highly successful and express disdain when corruption occurs in a government agency. Most of the time, however, the impact of behavior in formal organizations goes relatively unnoticed.

Organizational psychology is a field that utilizes scientific methodology to better understand the behavior of individuals working in organizational settings. This knowledge is also used, in a va ... read full excerpt from Organizational Psychology: A Scientist-Practitioner Approach ebook

    Why must I activate my Adobe Reader? 

    Many publishers require powerful copy protection for their eBook titles. In order for you to be able to purchase and download eBook titles that have been secured for distribution, you first need to activate your Adobe Reader. Just as a credit card typically must be activated by a bank before use, your Adobe Reader needs to be activated before you can purchase and read eBooks packaged for secure distribution. 

    Can I print or copy my Adobe ebook?

    To protect copyrights, publishers and authors establish their own guidelines for how much of their eBooks can be printed or copied. This means that these permissions will differ from book to book. Each ebook file has a differing level of encryption which is controlled by the author/publisher at creation. For example, a publisher might give users the ability to print several pages of a cookbook within a set period of time. You'll see specifc settings for the Adobe title under the ebook description.
