Ethics and Values in Industrial-Organizational Psychology

Ethics and Values in Industrial-Organizational Psychology was one of the first books to integrate work from moral philosophy, moral psychology, I-O psychology, and political and social economy, as well as business. It incorporates these perspectives into a "framework for taking moral action" and presents a practical model for ethical decision making. The Second Edition has added a chapter on Virtue Theory, including its application in I-O, OB and business; expands Moral Psychology to two chapters, with more attention to moral emotions, effects of the "dark side" of personality, and the intuitionist model of moral judgment; expands the sections on social and economic justice; and expands the treatment of the Responsible Conduct of Research with a new chapter on Research Integrity. Examples from I-O research and practice, as well as current business events, are offered throughout. It is ideal for ethics and I-O courses at the graduate level.

Joel Lefkowitz is Professor Emeritus of Psychology at the Bernard M. Baruch College and the Graduate Center of the City University of New York, where he was head of the doctoral program in I-O psychology from its inception in 1982 until 2009. He is a Fellow of the Society for Industrial-Organizational Psychology; the American Psychology Association Divisions 9 and 14; and the Association for Psychological Science.
