SIOP Members in the News

Clif Boutelle
SIOP Media Consultant

News writers and reporters are discovering that the expertise of SIOP members can, and does, add credibility to their stories. And why not? SIOP members possess a broad range of specialized knowledge that can enlighten media reports on workplace issues.

For example, the Gannett News Service in July called upon Bob and Joyce Hogan, of Hogan Assessment Systems in Tulsa, Oklahoma, to comment on a story about online personality tests that appeared in newspapers across the country.

A research study about the personalities of U.S. presidents coauthored by Deniz Ones of the University of Minnesota psychology department, was quoted in Time Magazine in August 2000.

David Peterson of Personnel Decisions International in Minneapolis, Minnesota was quoted extensively in a June Fortune Magazine column about how managers can best motivate employees.

A study co-conducted by Old Dominion University psychology professor Debra Major shows how a good relationship with a boss can sometimes result in longer work hours and tougher assignments which, in turn, can take its toll on family life. Those findings were reported in the May issue of Working Mother and also picked up by the Associated Press.

There are other examples and the TIP staff would like to know about them so they can be part of a new editorial departmentSIOP Members in the News.

Please pass along copies of articles where SIOP members are featured, quoted, or mentioned to the SIOP Administrative Office at 520 Ordway Avenue, P.O. Box 87, Bowling Green, OH 43402 by e-mail to Lhakel@siop.bgsu.edu,  or fax to (419) 352-2645. These will become part of this new column.
