I-O Psychologists’ Passion Projects: Increasing Fairness for Job Seekers with Criminal Records
We continue our exploration of the field of Industrial-Organizational (I-O) Psychology, the American Psychological Association’s Division 14.

The first post explored how an I-O psychologist helped the animal fostering program.
