The Psychology of Workplace Technology (SIOP Organizational Frontiers Series)

"Recent advances in technology have dramatically altered the manner in which organizations function, transforming the way people think about and perform their work. The implications of these trends continue to evolve as emerging innovations adapt to and are adapted by organizations, workers, and other components of the socio-technical systems in which they are embedded. A rigorous consideration of these implications is needed to understand, manage, and drive the reciprocal interplay between technology and the workplace. This edited volume brings together top scholars within and outside of the field of industrial and organizational (I-O) psychology to explore the psychological and organizational effects of contemporary workplace technologies. A special section is included at the end of the book by four experts in the field entitled Reflections and Future Directions."--Publisher's website Cover 1 The Psychology of Workplace Technology 2 Title Page 6 Copyright Page 7 Dedication 8 Table of Contents 10 Series Foreword 14 Preface 16 About the Editors 18 About the Contributors 20 Chapter 1 Toward a Synergistic Relationship between Psychology and Technology 26 Section I Traditional Topics 44 Chapter 2 Technology-Based Selection 46 Chapter 3 Advances in Training Technology: Meeting the Workplace Challenges of Talent Development, Deep Specialization, and Collaborative Learning 68 Chapter 4 Technology and Performance Appraisal 102 Chapter 5 Teams and Technology 124 Chapter 6 Leadership and Technology: A Love–Hate Relationship 143 Section II Human Factors 172 Chapter 7 Human Factors 174 Chapter 8 Usability Science II: Measurement 187 Section III Emerging Areas 208 Chapter 9 Robots: The New Teammates 210 Chapter 10 Workplace Monitoring and Surveillance Research since “1984”: A Review and Agenda 234 Chapter 11 The Impact of Technology on Employee Stress, Health, and Well-Being 263 Chapter 12 Global Development through the Psychology of Workplace Technology 286 Chapter 13 Online Social Media in the Workplace: A Conversation with Employees 309 Section IV Reflections and Future Directions 330 Chapter 14 Looking Back, Looking Forward: Technology in the Workplace 332 Chapter 15 Reflections on Technology and the Changing Nature of Work 339 Chapter 16 Intersections between Technology and I/O Psychology 343 Author Index 347 Subject Index 351 "Recent advances in technology have dramatically altered the manner in which organizations function, transforming the way people think about and perform their work.
