Why study job attitudes and other workplace psychological constructs -- Job attitudes and other workplace psychological constructs -- Conclusions.

"Although the topic of job attitudes and other workplace psychological constructs such as perceptions, identity, bonds, and motivational states is important, there are no books addressing the topic as a whole; Essentials of Job Attitudes and Other Workplace Psychological Constructs seeks to fill that void in a comprehensive edited volume that compiles chapters by experts on each construct. Essentials of Job Attitudes and Other Workplace Psychological Constructs begins with a review of the concept of job attitudes and other workplace psychological constructs, then focuses a single chapter on each workplace psychological construct. These chapters focus on organizational justice, perceived organizational support, organizational identification, job involvement, workplace commitment, job embeddedness, job satisfaction, employee engagement, and work team-level psychological constructs. Each of these chapters address parallel content including definitions, history, theory, a critique of the field to date with future research recommendations, and how the given construct can be used in practice. There are two additional features that make this book unique: first, each chapter provides a nomological network figure of the workplace psychological construct addressed; and second, each chapter provides one or more of the current measures used to assess the construct of interest. Essentials of Job Attitudes and Other Workplace Psychological Constructs is an ideal text for students and professionals in industrial and organizational psychology, organizational behavior, and human resource management"-- Provided by publisher.
