International Review of Industrial and Organizational Psychology 2008, Volume 23

‘I have been a loyal reader of International Review of Industrial and Organizational Psychology (IRIOP) since the late 1980s. IRIOP provides timely and incisive reviews that I have found just as useful in preparing for my comprehensive exams almost 20 years ago as I find today in keeping up-to-date regarding the most recent developments in the field.’
Herman Aguinis, Ph.D., Dean’s Research Professor and Professor of Organizational Behavior & Human Resources, Kelley School of Business, Indiana University, USA

‘In today’s fast-changing world it is more critical than ever to keep abreast with the latest developments. For 25 years now, this book series has been serving the scholarly community in I/O Psychology by publishing up-to-date and critical reviews of the field. It is a first point of reference for me.’
Neal M. Ashkanasy, PhD, Professor of Management, UQ Business School, The University of Queensland, Australia

‘This series provides authoritative, timely and comprehensive state-of-the-science reviews of key topics in I/O psychology and related fields of management and organizational science. As a longstanding series, these annual review volumes have become an indispensible resource for organizational scholars, informed human resource managers, and practicing industrial-organizational psychologists. The list of contributing authors over the years reads like a Who’s Who of managerial psychology, and the reach and scope of this impressive series is truly international. As an essential subscription for any university library and active researchers in the management sciences, I commend the editors wholeheartedly for the ongoing success of this annual review series – it truly does represent international scholarship in our field at its best.’
