Abstract

This article presents a personalized view of the history, development, and current shape of the related fields of industrial–organizational (I/O) psychology and organizational behavior (OB) by two authors who have personally experienced many of the events and changes that have occurred in these fields over the past 50 or so years. Particular attention is given to the interconnections and differences between I/O psychology and OB and to the implications of those differences and overlaps for research and professional practice. The article concludes with some thoughts about areas of potential advances that could be made in the future and a discussion of some of the challenges to be faced in making those kinds of progress.
