Rezensionen

"Most adults spend 1/3 or more of their waking hours at work. Some people wonder, "What went wrong?" while others think, "How did I get so lucky?" Vocational Interests in the Workplace takes up such questions in a collection of essays by experts in the field. These essays explore the complex interplay of personal interests and work environments, considering jobs from the view of the organization, the worker, the vocational psychologist, and the measurement specialist. This book invites both casual and serious readers into the study of interests, embracing organizational, vocational, and educational psychology." - Susan X Day, PhD, Research Professor, University of Houston, USA
