The goal of the Essentials of Industrial and Organizational Psychology Series is to produce accessible guides that cover basic and advanced concepts in a straight-forward, readable style. Each book in the series covers a specific topic, providing essentials that managers, practitioners, and other well-educated people should know. Although the presentation may range from traditional textbook format to edited volumes, they are all brief books that could be used as source texts in master’s and doctoral programs in IO as well as specialty undergraduate courses.
