Organizational Frontiers Series: Judgment and Decision Making at Work

Más información sobre el libro

Employees frequently make decisions that impact themselves, their families, their organizations, and sometimes even society. Examples include hiring choices, setting production goals, assessing job satisfaction, and reporting misconduct. These decisions are crucial to organizational research, yet industrial and organizational psychologists have often overlooked a judgment and decision-making perspective in their studies. This book aims to address this gap by fostering collaboration between organizational psychology and decision-making disciplines. It presents both laboratory and field research on judgment and decision-making, applying findings to key areas of interest for industrial and organizational psychologists, such as performance appraisal, employee selection, leadership, and team dynamics. Additionally, it explores how research in organizational psychology can enhance the field of judgment and decision-making. The contributors to this book are researchers who operate at the intersection of these two fields, positioning them to effectively bridge the divide and enrich both disciplines through their insights and findings.
