In other words, a great many topics of interest to organizational researchers ultimate...
Psychosocial Dynamics of Cyber Security
This new volume, edited by industrial and organizational psychologists, will look at the important topic of cyber security work in the US and around the world. With contributions from experts in the fields of industrial and organizational psychology, human factors, computer science, economics, and applied anthropology, the book takes the position that employees in cyber security professions must maintain attention over long periods of time, must make decisions with imperfect information with the potential to exceed their cognitive capacity, may often need to contend with stress and fatigue, and must frequently interact with others in team settings and multiteam systems.

Temporal Investigations Into the Relationship Between Affect and Discretionary Work Behavior
After a long hiatus, mood and emotions (collectively known as affect) are enjoying a strong resurgence in many areas of psychology.

The present set of research projects were designed to test, and extend, Affective Events Theory. The research focuses on the contextual or discretionary aspects of job performance--namely, organizational citizenship behavior and counterproductive (de...
