Download or read book Attribution Theory written by Mark Martinko and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-04 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With Special Contributions from Bernard Weiner Ph.D. (UCLA) and Robert Lord Ph.D. (Univ. of Akron) Attribution theory is concerned with peoples causal explanation for outcomes: successes and failures. The basic premise is that beliefs about outcomes are a primary determinant of expectations and, consequently, future behavior. Attribution theory articulates how this process occurs and provides a basis for understanding that translates into practical action. Attribution Theory: An Organizational Perspective serves as a primary sourcebook of attribution theory as it relates to management and organizational behavior. The text provides an integrated explanation of the role and function of attribution theory in the organization. This important new book contains original empirical research relating attributions to leader evaluations, reactions to information technologies, management of diverse work groups, achievement, and executive succession and power. The contributors are from a variety of disciplines including management, psychology, education, educational psychology, and sociology.
Download or read book Consuming Knowledge Studying Knowledge Use in Leisure and Work Activities written by Steven D. Silver and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is difficult to overstate the importance of personal consumption both to individual consumers and to the economy. While consumer&, are recognized as valuing market goods and services for the activities they can construct from them in the frameworks of several disciplines, consequences of the characteristics of goods and services they use in these activities have not been well studied. In the discourse to follow, I will contrast knowledge-yielding and conventional goods and services as factors in the construction of activities that consumers engage in when they are not in the workplace. Consumers will be seen as deciding on non-work activities and the inputs to these activities according to their objectives, and the values and cumulated skills they hold. I will suggest that knowledge content in these activities can be efficient for consumer objectives and also have important externalities through its effect on productivity at work and economic growth. The exposition will seek to elaborate these points and contribute to multi disciplinal dialogue on consumption. It takes as its starting point the contention that consumption is simultaneously an economic and social psychological process and that integration of content can contribute to explanation.

Download or read book The Ethical and Pedagogical Implications of Teaching Dark Psychology written by KHRITISH SWARGIARY and published by LAP. This book was released on 2024-03-03 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of human behavior encompasses an exploration of both positive and negative aspects of how individuals think and behave. While virtues such as kindness and honesty have received considerable attention, the field of "dark psychology," which delves into the more unsettling facets of human nature, raises concerns and ethical considerations. "The Ethical and Pedagogical Implications of Teaching Dark Psychology," a three-volume book, seeks to examine the intricate issues surrounding the instruction and dissemination of knowledge related to dark psychology. Volume 1 initiates this exploration by introducing the concept of dark psychology, its historical context, and its place within contemporary psychological research. Chapter 1 provides an overview of dark psychology, its motivations for study, and the rationale behind conducting extensive research in this area. Chapter 2 delves further into defining dark psychology, elucidating its core concepts, and exploring the psychological underpinnings of dark traits and behaviors. Chapter 3 examines current practices in teaching psychology, ethical considerations, and the process of developing curricula in psychology education. As researchers and educators, we acknowledge the complexity and sensitivity of the subject of dark psychology. We aspire for this work to foster a nuanced understanding of the ethical dilemmas and responsible pedagogical strategies pertinent to this domain within academic environments. We extend our gratitude to the numerous scholars, researchers, and educators whose contributions have shaped our comprehension of this multifaceted subject. Their perspectives and insights have been instrumental in shaping the discourse presented within these pages.

Download or read book Ethical Issues in Clinical Neuropsychology written by Shane Bush and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until now there has been no single volume in which a broad and comprehensive scope of ethical questions in neuropsychology is discussed. These editors have sought to fill that gap, calling upon leading thinkers in the field of neuropsychology and ethics. Ethical Issues in Clinical Neuropsychology affords the seasoned practitioner as well as the beginner a broad sampling of research and commentary on the ethical dilemmas involved in the clinical practice of Neuropsychology. Part 1 presents ethical issues that arise in the provision of neuropsychological services irrespective of setting, whereas Part 2 concentrates on the unique ethical challenges that attend practice with specific populations. Each chapter offers a rare view into the actual practice of Neuropsychology and the examples highlight an oft-quoted observation at Ethics Committee meetings that good clinical practice is good ethical practice. Carefully crafted vignettes allow the reader to apply these concepts to a myriad of situations confronting practicing clinical neuropsychologists. The discerning reader of Ethical Issues in Clinical Neuropsychology should have no difficulty translating between the 1992 and the proposed ethics code. This is a volume that will be a meaningful addition not only to the libraries of graduate students, interns, and postdoctoral fellows but also to the reference shelves of established practitioners and those preparing for board certification examinations in neuropsychology. This book will be of interest to neuropsychologists, rehabilitation psychologists, clinical psychologists and ethicists.
