Chapter Objectives
Explain how to conduct psychological research.
Describe how to communicate research findings to others.
Explore navigating the psychological literature and cyberspace.
Introduce APA style for writing about and citing research.
Describe how psychologists express ideas using public speaking skills.

Student Learning Outcomes
By the end of this chapter, students should be able to:

Describe the values psychologists exercise when they communicate their ideas to professional audiences.

Research Overview (1 of 3)
Psychological research is empirical.
In experiments, some participants receive the experimental level of the independent variable; others are the control group.
Random assignment ensures that all participants have the same chance of being placed in the experimental or control group.

Research Overview (2 of 3)
Psychologists assess the outcome of the experiment.
They measure the dependent variable, or how participants react to the experimental or control condition represented in the independent variable.

Research Overview (3 of 3)
Psychologists also collect and interpret peer-reviewed research in literature reviews.
Such reviews frame a topic to make claims about what caused a particular behavior.

Other Research Approaches
Case study
Naturalistic observation
Survey
Archival research
Quasi-experimental research
Literature review
Meta-analysis
Psychologists have lots of options beyond formal experiments for gathering evidence to explain behavior.

Creating Research Ideas (1 of 2)
Where can you get research ideas?
Look around – What’s happening on campus?
Extend what is already known – Try changing variables in a published study.
Find a paradox – Look for topics that defy conventional expectations (“opposites attract” vs. “birds of a feather”).

Creating Research Ideas (2 of 2)
Where can you get research ideas?
Identify a real-life problem – For example, how can food waste in the cafeteria be reduced?
What psychological issues puzzle you? – The issues can be about yourself or peers.

Doing Efficient Library Research (6 of 6)
Read ambitiously.
If the paper requires 10 sources, plan to read substantially more than that.
Your goal is to construct an argument with the 10 best resources you can find, not the first 10 you can find.

Doing a Search: Summary
Step 1 – Choose a topic.
Step 2 – Gather search terms.
Step 3 – Collect references (journals, chapters, books, other).
Step 4 – Search reference lists in sources for other references; go back to step 3.
Step 5 – Consult a reference librarian to expand or narrow search.

Determine an effective process to evaluate the performance of one of your employees

HRM assignment help
For this assignment, determine an effective process to evaluate the performance of one of your employees. As you have determined that periodic evaluations can be more beneficial than annual evaluations, you will be evaluating the mid-level manager who you hired and who has now been on board for 6 months. Your process should include an appropriate evaluation tool and a means of providing feedback on the employee’s performance issues.

There are three parts to this project. You will begin by developing a performance review form that contains a minimum of 10 points of criteria. This template is a starting point and may be used as is or can be modified as you wish. The template has 10 points of criteria; however, you can add more if the specifics of the position warrant you doing so.

Provide an explanation for each of the criteria. Remember, these should directly represent the knowledge, skills, and abilities (KSAs) as well as the requirements for the position.

Develop a rating scale, and provide a legend that identifies the distinct performance rating definitions. There must be a minimum of three levels. (The template has three levels; however, you can add more.)

Next, you will fill out your newly created form to evaluate the mid-level manager. This is, of course, based on the input of the immediate supervisor and your own assessment.

Evaluate each criteria, and include a minimum of three criteria where the employee does not meet performance expectations.

Summarize the employee performance appraisal in the comments section.

Identify the employee’s strengths and weaknesses.

Offer feedback and coaching on ways that the employee can improve his or her performance.

Finally, you will write a one-page synopsis in which you explain the value of your evaluation process and new tool to your leadership team. Include the information below:

how the changes will benefit the organization,

how equal employment opportunity laws were considered, and

strategies that leaders can use to address unmet employee performance expectations.

Include two sources to support your explanation.

Throughout Boston’s history, mothers played a crucial role in the reform movement in the city. Comparing the fight for school desegregation from the 1960s on to the situation in schools today, explain how mothers held a key role in the fight for social justice.

  Write a post. Your post should contain well thought-out paragraphs and not simply lists of brief answers. I encourage you to use material from our lectures to support your conclusions. You only should use the files that i will upload as a resource the professor doesn’t accept outside resources. Throughout Boston’s history, mothers played a crucial role in the reform movement in the city. Comparing the fight for school desegregation from the 1960s on to the situation in schools today, explain how mothers held a key role in the fight for social justice.  

Explain the difference between performance management and performance appraisals and discuss the components of a performance management process. How does performance management provide strategic value to the organization?

Discussion One:

Explain the difference between performance management and performance appraisals and discuss the components of a performance management process. How does performance management provide strategic value to the organization? Share an example of an employee performance goal that is aligned with an organizational performance need.
Explain how performance feedback can be delivered to motivate employees and enhance performance. Discuss some strategies for managing poor performance and how and when you would use development plans to improve performance issues.
Be sure to provide the references for the sources of the information you used including the material provided in the classroom.

Discussion Two: Focus on Analytics

“With the additional responsibilities of being a strategic business partner, the modern HR function now faces greater pressure to make sound and impactful decisions. As a result, data-driven decisions have become an integral part of effective strategic HRM. To achieve strategic objectives and a competitive advantage, a growing number of organizations collect, analyze, and interpret data via HR information systems and HR analytics. More specifically, technological advances have made it easier to capture and store HR data in HR information systems, and using HR analytics, these data can be used to improve HR systems, policies, and practices and, as a result, the performance and viability of the organization. HR analysts test hypotheses to determine the best ways to manage people within the organization—or in other words, to arrive at data-driven decisions that bring the organization one step closer to meeting strategic objectives”

According to Maslow’s hierarchy, which basic needs does the Patagonia culture meet? What would it be like to work at Patagonia? What’s your assessment of the company’s work environment?

Read the Case Application 1: Passion for the Outdoors and for People.

After reading the case details, prepare your report for Patagonia managers by answering the following questions:

1. According to Maslow’s hierarchy, which basic needs does the Patagonia culture meet? What would it be like to work at Patagonia? (Hint: Go to Patagonia’s website and find the section on jobs.) What’s your assessment of the company’s work environment? (20 points)

2. Use the expectancy theory and/or the equity theory of motivation to explain how feeling underpaid might affect the work of a Patagonia associate and what a manager can do to increase the employee’s motivation. (20 points)

3. What do you think might be Patagonia’s biggest challenge in keeping employees motivated? If you were managing a team of Patagonia employees in the retail stores, how would you keep them motivated? (20 points)

CASE APPLICATION 1 Passion for the Outdoors and for People

At its headquarters in Ventura, California, Patagonia’s office space feels more like a national park lodge than the main office of a $400 million retailer.100 It has a Douglas fir staircase and a portrait of Yosemite’s El Capitan. The company’s café serves organic food and drinks. There’s an infant and toddler child-care room for employees’ children. An easy one-block walk from the Pacific Ocean, employees’ surfboards are lined up by the cafeteria, ready at a moment’s notice to catch some waves. (Current wave reports are noted on a whiteboard in the lobby.) After surfing or jogging or biking, employees can freshen up in the showers in the restrooms. And no one has a private office. If an employee doesn’t want to be disturbed, he or she wears headphones. Visitors are evident by the business attire they wear. The company encourages celebrations to boost employee morale. For instance, at the Reno store, the “Fun Patrol” organizes parties throughout the year.

Attracting people who share its strong passion for the outdoors and the environment, Patagonia motivates its loyal employees by giving them responsibility for the outcomes of their work and a high level of task significance that their work is meaningful because it contributes to the purpose of protecting and preserving the environment.

Patagonia has long been recognized as a great workplace for mothers. And it’s also earned a reputation for loyal employees, something that many retailers struggle with. Its combined voluntary and involuntary turnover in its retail stores was around 25 percent, while it was only 7 percent at headquarters. (The industry average for retail is around 44 percent.) Patagonia’s CEO Casey Sheahan says the company’s culture, camaraderie, and way of doing business is very meaningful to employees and they know that “what they do each day is contributing toward a higher purpose—protecting and preserving the areas that most of them love spending time in.” Managers are coached to define expectations, communicate deadlines, and then let employees figure out the best way to meet those.

Founded by Yvon Chouinard (his profile as a Leader Who Made a Difference can be found on p. 134), Patagonia’s first and strongest passion is for the outdoors and the environment. And that attracts employees who are also passionate about those things. But Patagonia’s executives do realize that they are first and foremost a business and, even though they’re committed to doing the right thing, the company needs to remain profitable to be able to continue to do the things it’s passionate about. But that hasn’t seemed to be an issue since the recession in the early 1990s when the company had to make its only large-scale layoffs in its history.
