About SIOP

About the Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology (SIOP)

SIOP.org Update:

As evidenced by Objective 2.4 of our Strategic Plan, we understand the importance and value of our website as a communication tool and member resource. While we are always working to create an informative, user-friendly website, in early 2021, the Website Subcommittee was formed to amplify and support those efforts. We invite you to send your comments and suggestions to siop@siop.org as we continue to improve our website experience, both in the near and long term.

SIOP is the premier professional association for the science and practice of I-O psychology. While an independent organization with its own governance, SIOP also represents Division 14 of the American Psychological Association and is an organizational affiliate of the Association for Psychological Science.

I-O psychology is a dynamic and growing field that addresses workplace issues at the individual and organizational level. I-O psychologists apply research that improves the well-being and performance of people and the organizations that employ them. This involves everything from workforce planning, employee selection, and leader development to studying job attitudes and job motivation, implementing work teams, improving diversity and inclusion, and facilitating organizational change.

If this is your first time visiting our site, we welcome you to browse through the wealth of information and resources available to visitors and members alike. We hope that you will be inspired by all the ways SIOP members strive to make work better for everyone
