As the material learned in graduate school quickly becomes dated, how do researchers and practitioners stay alert to new developments in the field without spending countless hours poring over many highly technical journal articles? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eMeasuring and Analyzing Behavior in Organizations\u003c\/i\u003e brings together the latest advances in measurement and data analysis, providing accessible, current discussions of measurement, applied statistics, research methods, and data analysis.

Each chapter is broken down into five major parts, including descriptions of 1) the method and assumptions about data that must be satisfied to use the analysis appropriately, 2) the types of problems that one can or should address with the approach being discussed and what advantages the approach holds, 3) the limitations of the method, 4) an example that highlights the manner in which the method should be used, and 5) information on computer software and instructional materials.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eResearchers, students, and practitioners who want to update themselves on analyses and measurement methods will find this book to be an invaluable tool.

Now, this fifteenth volume in the Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology's Organizational Frontiers Series fills the gap in the literature by providing readable, up-to-date discussions of many of the most important areas of measurement and data analysis. In each chapter, the expert authors provide descriptions of the types of problems that can or should be addressed with the approach, a description of the limitations of the method, and an instructive example that illustrates the advantages of the approach and highlights the way it should be used. Most important, \u003ci\u003eMeasuring and Analyzing Behavior in Organizations\u003c\/i\u003e allows substantive researchers to learn about recent developments without having to spend countless hours reading highly technical books and articles. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eContributors to Measuring and Analyzing Behavior in Organizations include: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePaul D.
