Social Psychology of Organizational Behavior Key Readings

Each article in this collection has exerted a tremendous impact on the field of organizational behavior. The articles are organized into seven major sections: (1) the science of and metaphor of micro OB; (2) decision making; (3) negotiation and social dilemmas; (4) groups and teams; (5) procedural justice; (6) relationships and trust; and (7) values, norms and politics. The organization of the book reflects a progression through widening levels of analysis. The section on decision making focuses on the cognition and behavior of the individual actor; the sections on negotiation and groups focus on dyads and groups; and the procedural justice, relationships and values sections focus on how the organizational actor is embedded in networks, organizational norms, and institutional practices. For each of the major sections, there is a short overview. The articles in this book provide a framework for scholarly thinking in these areas, allowing readers to better develop new ideas and theories about micro organizational behavior.
