ABSTRACT

This chapter and the remainder of Part II deal with professional values, values conflicts, and role conflicts that are attributable to the complex nature of any profession and the settings in which it is performed. Some reflect strains within the field of psychology and the sciences in general; some characterize the interface between the values of psychology and those of business, which is, of course, the meeting ground on which I/O psychology is practiced. First, I discuss the professions in general.
