Personnel Psychology: An Applied Perspective is an introductory textbook which combines classic theories and research with the latest developments that mirror the dynamics of personnel psychology. The book provides a challenging and insightful overview of the application of industrial and organisational psychology in the South African context and is accessible to students who are relatively new to these disciplines.
The third edition has been extensively updated to reflect contemporary cutting-edge perspectives, research and practices on personnel employment (research methods, workforce planning, job analysis and criterion development, psychological assessment and recruitment and selection), and workforce retention (psychology of retention, reward and remuneration, performance management, training and development, career development, employee wellness and employment relations).
