Work Psychology: The Basics provides an accessible, jargon-free
introduction to the fundamental principles of work and occupational
psychology. Covering key theories and models in this dynamic area,
it offers a solid understanding of both academic theory and
practical applications. The book follows the structure of the
British Psychological Society curriculum for Masters courses,
exploring psychological assessment at work; learning, training and
development; wellbeing at work; work design, organisational change
and development; and leadership, engagement and motivation. These
core topics are supplemented by deep dives into the development of
the discipline; research and practice in the field; and suggestions
for the future of work psychology. Giving a detailed look into the
world of work, it answers such questions as: Can we accurately
select people for jobs? How can work positively and negatively
affect mental and physical health? How can we motivate people in
the workplace? And What makes a good leader? It also explores
issues around types of research and what effective research looks
like in this area. Supported by a helpful guide on the routes to
chartership in the UK and working in the area, as well as a
glossary of key terms and suggestions for further reading, this is
the ideal introductory text for students. It will also interest
those looking to understand the subject more generally and complete
training in the area.
