Journal Article Application
You will write a four page paper summarizing and applying a research article related to one of the theories we have discussed in class (a theory of motivation, leadership, personality, etc.). The purpose of this paper is to familiarize yourself with scienti?c research in organizational behavior, think critically about evaluating and synthesizing the ideas therein, and then consider how the theory and ?ndings presented in it could be relevant in improving real-life workplaces. You can pick any topic covered in the course, but the article you ?nd must come from one of the following journals: Academy of Management Journal, Journal of Organizational Behavior, or Personnel Psychology. If you choose an article from a di?erent journal than these, points will be deducted.
Your paper will have two components: (1) a brief synopsis of the research article you have read, and (2) a detailed description of several ways that the ?ndings from the research article could be applied in a real organization in the midst of the current COVID-19 pandemic.
Recommended Paper Structure
Brief Synopsis
Brie?y and succinctly (1 page) summarize the main points of the journal article. Your synopsis should address:
1. what the purpose of the study was and how it ?ts into the broader literature
2. how the study was designed
3. the main ?ndings
Your paper should provide enough detail that someone who hasn't read the journal article would have a good feel for what the paper was about, how the research was conducted, and what the ?ndings mean. However, make sure that you don't miss the forest for the trees (i.e., don't provide so many speci?c details that you lose sight of the bigger picture in terms of what the article is really about).
Applications to Real Organizations
The bulk of your paper (roughly 2 pages) should present two to four ways that the ?ndings from the research article could be applied to improve organizational practices during the midst of the current COVID-19 pandemic. It could apply to employees working remotely (from home), or front-line workers going into their jobs onsite. Provide detail both in terms of how the research would be applied and potential costs and bene?ts arising from these practices. This portion will be graded based on how thoughtfully the research is applied and evaluated.
Conclusion
In one to two ?nal paragraphs, conclude your review and give an overall evaluation. Is the study informative or not? What should readers take away from the paper if they read it? Do you think the recommendations for management practices are appropriate?
