  • Identify your present level of self confidence.
    Out of the twelve techniques on p. 86-87 of the
    course text that are designed to increase self
    confidence, select at least six and describe how
    they can help you strengthen your own
    self-confidence. Does self confidence affect job
    performance? Why or why not? How are inter-office
    relationships affected by differing levels of

  • Now that you are familiar with I/O psychology, if
    you wanted to pursue a career in this area, what
    could you do between now and graduation to make
    this career possible? What unique opportunities
    does the field of I/O psychology present in the
    workplace? In which area of I/O psychology would
    you specialize?

  • Describe the major factors related to employee
    selection. Be sure to include factors of job
    analysis, responsibilities, knowledge, skills,
    and abilities (KSAs), job contexts and

  • Motivational Theories and Factors
  •  
  • As we contemplate what motivates employees in the
    workplace, we include in this topic motivational
    affects of stress and conflict in the workplace.
    In a one-to-two page paper compare and contrast
    three motivational theories including the
    relationship of stress and conflict in relation
    to individual motivations. When you are involved
    in a stressful situation at work, what effective
    techniques do you use? What effective techniques
    could you use in the future?

  • For more classes visit
  • www.snaptutorial.com
  • An individual may be extrinsically or
    intrinsically motivated. Theories differ in their
    descriptions of motivation, as do the factors
    that facilitate and inhibit motivation in various
    work settings. Which motivation theory would you
    use to describe the challenges with alternative
    work arrangements (e.g., flex-time, compressed
    work PSY 302 Week, and telecommuting) as
    discussed in the text? Do you believe the
    practice of providing alternative work
    arrangements will continue? Why or why not?
  •  
  • Your initial post should be a minimum of 250-300
    words. You must use at least one scholarly,
    peer-reviewed source that was published within

    Workplace

  • The decision-making process is important at every
    level of an organization. Regardless of position,
    workers are faced with making daily decisions.
    Apply the six-step rational decision-making
    model, within Chapter 8 of your course text, to
    one of the following situations
  • a. You are a product officer for a high-tech
    company. You have two new products to market, but
    only have funding for one. How will you determine
    which product to introduce?

  • In the role of a consultant, create a report
    about one person and his or her interactions in
    the workplace. This person is really you but you
    will be writing about yourself under a pseudonym.
    Describe your personality and communication style
    in the workplace in the third person grammar. Use
    a fictitious name for yourself. Include examples
    of your interactions with at least three people
    who have different personality and/or
    communication styles as you. Consider what advice
    as a consultant you would provide yourself to
    improve the relationships for a more productive

  • PSY 302 Week 3 DQ 1 Leadership
  • For more classes visit
  • www.snaptutorial.com
  • The origin of a leader has been a topic of debate
    for decades. While some believe that leaders are
    born, others argue that leaders are made. Both
    sides of the debate have major implications for
    future leaders and the I/O psychologists who will
    work with them. Explore the relationship between
    leadership characteristics, including innate
    ability, personality, and communication.
  •  
  • Do you believe that leaders are born or made?
    Why? Describe how an individuals personality
    helps or hinders his/her leadership ability.
    Compare and contrast leaders with managers. What
    are the similarities and differences between
    these two titles? Explain how communication style
    impacts leadership effectiveness. Do you have to
    be an effective communicator to be a leader? Why
    or why not?

  • Although originally an Eastern concept, team
    culture has slowly been integrated into the
    culture of the American workplace. As we learned
    this PSY 302 Week, there are several types of
    teams that one can be a part of self-managed
    work team (S.M.W.T.) , manager-led teams,
    cross-functional teams, project teams, virtual
    teams and more. Based on your reading this PSY
    302 Week, consider the following
  •  
  • Using your previous experience as a team member,
    describe a team experience that lacked cohesion
    and/or was inefficient. After reviewing the
    components of team composition (i.e.,
    personality, cognitive abilities, diversity,
    size), that are listed in your course text,
    describe how the components

  • Testing and assessment are critical components of
    selection, recruitment, and training and
    development processes in any business or
    organization. Indentify an assessment that might
    be used by an I/O psychologist working in your
    industry (this may be an assessment that you have
    taken or one you are familiar with). Describe the
    intended purpose and population for this
    assessment. Evaluate the validity and reliability
    of this assessment. Do you think that the
    assessment is measuring what it is intended to
    measure? Identify at least two strengths and at
    least two weaknesses of the assessment.

    psychology plays a large role in an
    organizations performance appraisals and/or
    training and development.
  •  
  • In your own words, define positive psychology.
    Explain how positive psychology manifests itself
    in your workplace. Assess whether positive
    psychology is more applicable to performance
    appraisal processes or the training and
    development process.

  • Employee attitudes are one of the many components
    that contribute to the overall health and well
    being of an individual within an organization.
    Think about the best and the worst boss you have
    ever had (if you have never had a boss, interview
    a friend or family member who has had one). How
    did your attitude shape the affective and
    behavioral components in the workplace? Of the
    theories we have discussed throughout the course,
    which one(s) assist in explaining poor
    leadership/management and its effects in an
    organization?

  • In American society, it is not uncommon for
    employees to leave an organization for another
    promising job opportunity. Typically, a complex
    combination of various organizational factors is
    involved in any decision to change jobs. In your
    own words, describe the key organizational
    factors that influence organizational commitment
    and job satisfaction. Assess the value of the
    following factors (co-workers, boss, salary, the
    work, and the location) as predictors of job
    satisfaction within your current organization (if
    you do not currently have an organization, you
    may use a past experience or interview a friend
    or family member who has one). Explain.
