Volume 41 Issue 4 of the Journal of Organizational Behavior Management

Issue 4 of Volume 41 includes four interesting studies! First, Guadalupe and Alvero report on a feedback study in which they examined the effects of feedback alone, feedback with a goal, and feedback with praise on accuracy and speed of performing a typing task. The results are very interesting – check it out! Next, Brown describes the use of a pictorially-enhanced self-instruction packet to improve timesheet completion among staff in a clinic. Selfinstruction materials are easy to create, easy to use, inexpensive, and, at least in this case, an effective training method for many employees. Brown describes the details of this package in this study. In the next study, Goomas and Ludwig evaluate a technology-based system of providing real-time feedback to improve food safety inspections at a processing plant. Technology-based interventions are becoming increasingly common in organizational behavior management; this study provides a great model for others. Finally, in a Report from the Field, Pugliese et al. describe the assessment and improvement of a safety concern in a school. Specifically, employees were not consistently using the proper protective equipment when working with students. Based on assessment results, these researchers implemented a variety of interventions across different classrooms to increase safe performance. I also want to again highlight a Call for Papers for a future issue of JOBM. I invite authors to submit manuscripts for a special series or issue on Supervision. Manuscripts on any aspect of supervision, including the effects of the frequency, quality, and nature of supervision, comparisons of supervision models, evaluation of effective supervision structure and components, and supervision ethics, are appropriate. Although empirical submissions are preferred, discussion articles will also be considered. The target date for submission of manuscripts is January 15, 2022 or earlier. These submissions will undergo an expedited peer-review process, and the goal will be to publish accepted manuscripts in Issues 2 or 3 of Volume 42 (2022). Authors are invited to submit manuscripts through the ScholarOne portal. Please note that the manuscript is being submitted as part of the special series on Supervision.
