This edited volume is derived from a conference held in honor of
Charles Hulin's contribution to the psychology of work. His
research has carefully developed and tested theory related to job
satisfaction, withdrawal from work, and sexual harassment. Edited
by Hulin's students, The Psychology of Work discusses research in
job satisfaction. This research shows that job satisfaction plays
an essential role in theories of organizational behavior. Formal
models are used, such as item response theory, structural equation
modeling, and computational models. Three general and consistent
themes in Hulin's research are represented in this book's chapters.
The first theme is a focus on broad, general constructs, such as
job satisfaction. The virtue of this approach is that a wide range
of behavior can be explained by a small number of variables. The
second theme involves the examination of the antecedents and
consequences of job satisfaction. This theme is increasingly
important because it ties research on job attitudes and job
behaviors where links are consistently found to social attitudes
and behaviors where links are rarely found. The third theme
consists of Hulin's interest in the use of formal models to
characterize and understand behavior. This volume will be of
interest to scholars and students in industrial/organizational
psychology, human resources, organizational behavior, and
management.
