Instructor’s Overview

The purpose of this module on Industrial-Organizational (I-O) psychology is to provide a general overview of the field that serves as a lead-in to any of the other modules that follow. Although this module is intended to be a ten to fifteen minute introduction, it can also be expanded into a full class lecture for instructors who are more familiar with the field.

For those of you who are less familiar with I-O psychology, notes are provided with each slide to give you illustrative examples to supplement the content of the slides. Again, this module is intended to be a snapshot of the field and not an exhaustive discussion of all the things done by I-O psychologists.
