Corporate Assessment, first published in 1993, looks at four types of company audit and provides a pragmatic, readable guide for managers. This book will not only be of interest to managers who need to assess their companies, but to students of business, organizational psychology, and human resource management.

Examines the controversial role of individual differences in predicting and determining behaviour at work. This book examines the significance of personality traits and the impact of temperaments on work performance and reviews the methods used to assess work behaviour and potential.

Explores how children become socialised into consumer society, how they respond to advertising, what they like and dislike, what they believe and disbelieve, and whether they need to be protected through special legislation and regulation.

Supported by illustrations and examples, this book covers all topics in the field, from vocational choice, personality, attitudes, motivation and stress, to cooperation, learning, training, group dynamics, decision-making and leadership. It proves to be a useful resource for psychology students on work and organizational psychology courses.
