This text presents a selection of contributions to the Sixth European Congress of Work and Organizational Psychology held in Alicante (Spain) in April 1993, some of which have been previously published in the European Work and Organizational Psychologist. The contributions selected to appear in this volume focus on some of the principal questions scholars and professionals concerned with work and organizational psychology are tackling in Europe. The range of topics, theoretical approaches, methodologies, and orientations discussed illustrate the richness and variety of ideas currently studied in the discipline. The topics addressed in this text have a clear significance for the current European scene of work and organizational psychology. Although they are not the only ones, the areas discussed present important trends and interests within the discipline. The main sections include contributions which deal with psychological characteristics and processes of individuals at work, work experiences and their relationship with psychological well-being, the study of work entry and work socialization, the study of teamwork in organizations, the study of leadership in organizations, new forms of work and organization, and the phenomenon of work in a social context. This book is intended to be of relevance and interest to both academics and practitioners in the field of work and organizational psychology.

First published in 1992. Organisational change and innovation has been at the centre of much management literature, which has been informed by debates in organizational behaviour and strategic management. The psychology of how people in organizations adapt to and manage change is key to our understanding of the processes by which such changes can occur successfully. Organizational Change and Innovation brings together the recent research findings of leading European work and organization psychologists, who take stock of existing theories about organizational change in the light of new case material. Their findings, from a range of cultural and national contexts, challenge some previously accepted models and set a new agenda for future research. In particular, the volume provides new perspectives on the person organization relationship; the political qualities of organizational change; the input-output model of organizations as entities; and finally on research methodology.
