The increasing incidence of job-related stress has given the
burgeoning field of occupational psychology greater prominence than
ever before. The omnipresence of computers in the workplace and the
enhanced ability of managers to supervise their employees' every
move has redefined the psychology of work. What then are the
emotions at play in the workplace? How do they contribute to and
affect happiness and job performance?
Psychology and the World of Work addresses issues essential to
the study of business psychology. Informed by a psychodynamic
orientation, the book covers such topics as the origins of the work
world, organizations, the work environment and ergonomics, the
psychology of time, group dynamics, recruitment and selection,
training, motivation, job satisfaction, the effects of new
technology, women at work, and women in the workplace.
