Accessible and engaging, this textbook introduces students to the field of personnel psychology, also known as industrial psychology. Based on their years of teaching in this area, Luong, Sprung, and Zickar survey core topics in the field, including job analysis, recruitment, selection, assessment, and performance evaluation. Throughout, they emphasize a psychological – rather than management – approach, explaining the key psychological principles that underpin human resources practices. Supported by plentiful examples, review questions, and discussion questions, this comprehensive overview shows how personnel psychologists endeavor toward a better workplace. Written in a clear and captivating style, this book introduces students to the most recent and pertinent scientific research in personnel psychology, and inspires future study in industrial-organizational psychology and related fields.
It's 1992 in Burnie, Tasmania and 12-year-old Justin lives alone with his mum. When she is well, Mum is perfect. She knows he likes his carrots raw and his toast cooled, and she knows how to sooth his growing pains. But when she is sick she cries uncontrollably and never gets out of bed. High school is on the horizon and Justin is bursting with adolescent energy. But his mum's mental illness hangs over him like a shadow and he feels the need to grow up fast. Told with youthful exuberance, Get Up Mum is a wildly endearing, entertaining and incredibly powerful memoir about love, family, and coming-of-age.
