  • At the individual level: personality, perception, beliefs, attitudes, values, motivation, career behavior, stress, emotions, judgment, and commitment.
  • At the group level: size, composition, structure, leadership, power, group affect, and politics.
  • At the organizational level: structure, change, goal-setting, creativity, and human resource management policies and practices.
  • Across levels: decision-making, performance, job satisfaction, turnover and absenteeism, diversity, careers and career development, equal opportunities, work-life balance, identification, organizational culture and climate, inter-organizational processes, and multi-national and cross-national issues.
