"It is well, well done -- I will indeed recommend it . . . this type of work has been long needed in our field."
--Robert J. Vandenberg, University of Georgia

Organizational researchers and managers have never had a single easy-to-use resource for validated measures, often relying on a selection of journal articles or improvised solutions to meet immediate needs. Taking the Measure of Work: A Guide to Validated Scales for Organizational Research and Diagnosis provides researchers, consultants, managers, and organizational development specialists validated and reliable ways to measure how employees view their work and their organization.

Whether preparing questionnaires or interviews for an employee survey, organizational assessment, dissertation or research program, this book guides users to a summary level understanding of each topic area, the measurement issues in the area, and a selection of measures to choose from. The measures cover the areas of:

Job Satisfaction
Organizational Commitment
Job Characteristics
Job Stress
Job Roles
Organizational Justice
Work-Family Conflict
Person-Organization Fit
Work Behaviors
Work Values
