Industrial-Organizational Psychology's Recurring Identity Crises: It's a Values Issue!

Joel Lefkowitz

Industrial and Organizational Psychology, 2010, vol. 3, issue 3, 293-299

Abstract: It's important to place the issues expressed by Ryan and Ford (2010) in historical perspective. Although they acknowledge some earlier expressions of concern, especially with respect to professional training (Naylor, 1971), I think it's fair to characterize the overall tenor of their essay as one of sounding the alarm: a new and unique impending identity crisis. However, as previously noted, “industrial-organizational psychology seems to be subject to recurring identity threats” (Lefkowitz, 2005, p. 18).
