Work Psychology A European Perspective

Providing a European perspective on work psychology, rather than organizational or personnel psychology, Roe and Zjilstra redress the balance with their focus on current psychological theories and approaches to 'working'. With the worker, as opposed to the organisation, at the centre of this textbook, the authors examine the psychological mechanisms underlying work activity, performance outcomes, and effects on the individual, safety, and competencies. The book draws upon key research in these areas and makes recommendations regarding job design, and worker well-being. A comprehensive new textbook, 'Work Psychology' provides students and researchers with an accessible account of the personal and environmental factors which influence working.Roe, Robert is the author of 'Work Psychology A European Perspective', published 2007 under ISBN 9781405135719 and ISBN 1405135719.
