PSYC 669 - Organizational Behavior Management

[3]

The purpose of this class is to expose students to a behavior-analytic conceptualization of organizational behavior and the underlying research on applied interventions in a variety of organizational settings. The readings and class discussions will provide students with a strong foundation in organizational psychology from a behavioral orientation, with particular emphasis in the last section of the class on issues specific to human services settings. Students will also develop a research proposal for an OBM-type intervention in an applied setting. During the course of the class, students will be given opportunities to hand in sections of the proposal, so that they will receive frequent feedback on their manuscript before the final deadline.
