What is Ecology?
An ecosystem can be defined as any situation where there is interaction between organisms and their environment
The study of the interaction between living organisms and their environment (physical & social environment).

What is Ecology? Terms “ecology” (oekologie) defined first by Ernst Haeckel in 1866 The science of the relationships between organisms and their environments. Human ecology The branch of sociology that is concerned with studying the relationships between human groups and their physical and social environments.
FEM 3104 /PJJ/SEM KEDUA 20102011

What is Ecology?
It seeks to explain the factors that determine the range of environments that organisms occupy and that determine how abundant organisms are within those ranges. The physical components of the environment include all non-biological constituents, such as temperature, wind, inorganic chemicals, and radiation. The biological components of the environment include the organisms. FEM 3104 /PJJ/SEM KEDUA 20102011
19
The first principle of ecology is that
Each living organism has an ongoing and continual relationship with every other element that makes up its environment
Ecology is concerned with patterns of distribution (where organisms occur) and with patterns of abundance (how many organisms occur) in space and time.

Guion (1965) defines I-O psychology as "the scientific study of the relationship between man and the world of work:... in the process of making a living" (p. 817). Blum and Naylor (1968) define it as "simply the application or extension of psychological facts and principles to the problems concerning human beings operating within the context of business and industry" (p 4) FEM 3104 /PJJ/SEM KEDUA 20102011
39
The "industrial" side of I-O psychology has its historical origins in research on individual differences, assessment, and the prediction of performance. This branch of the field crystallized during World War I, in response to the need to rapidly assign new troops to duty stations. After the War the growing industrial base in the U.S. added impetus to I-O psychology

What is it?
Measures the efficiency of workers and the costs associated with producing a unit of output.
Productivity specifically relates output to the amount of production time required in producing each unit.
The cost factors of the report are unit labor costs and compensation per hour. FEM 3104 /PJJ/SEM KEDUA 20102011

THE ORIGINS OF WORK PSYCHOLOGY Work psychology has at least two distinct roots. One resides in a pair of traditions termed 'fitting the man [sic] to the job' (FMJ) and 'fitting the job to the man [sic]'(FJM). The FMJ tradition manifests itself in employee selection, training and vocational guidance.
FEM 3104 /PJJ/SEM KEDUA 20102011
64
FMJ vs FJM The
FMJ and FJM traditions essentially concern the relationship between individuals and their work. The other root of work psychology can be loosely labelled human relations. It is concerned with the complex interplay between individuals, groups, organizations and work. It therefore emphasizes social factors at work much more than FMJ and FJM. FEM 3104 /PJJ/SEM KEDUA 20102011
65
Relay Assembly Test Room Study This work was followed up with what became known as the Relay Assembly Test Room Study. A small group of female assembly workers was taken from their large department, and stationed in a separate room so that their working conditions could be controlled effectively. Over a period of more than a year, changes were made in the length of the working day and working week, the length and timing of rest pauses and other aspects of the work context. Productivity increased after every change, and the gains were maintained even after all conditions returned to their original levels. FEM 3104 /PJJ/SEM KEDUA 20102011
66
Why did these results occur? Clearly, factors other than those deliberately manipulated by the researchers were responsible. The researchers had allowed the workers certain privileges at work, and had taken a close interest in the group. Hence some factor probably to do with feeling special, or guessing what the researchers were investigating, seemed to be influencing the workers' behaviour. The problem of a person's behaviour being affected by the knowledge that they are in an experiment has come to be called the Hawthorne effect. The more general lessons here are: (i) it is difficult to experiment with people without altering some conditions other than those intended, and (ii) people's behaviour is substantially affected by their interpretation of what is happening around them (Adair,1984). FEM 3104 /PJJ/SEM KEDUA 20102011
67
These conclusions were extended by a study of a group of male workers who wired up equipment in the Bank Wiring Room. A researcher sat in the corner and observed the group's activities. At first this generated considerable suspicion, but apparently after a time the men more or less forgot about the researcher's presence..
FEM 3104 /PJJ/SEM KEDUA 20102011
68
Once this happened, certain phenomena became apparent. First, there were social norms: that is, shared ideas about how things should be. Most importantly, there was a norm about what constituted an appropriate level of production. This was high enough to keep management off the men's backs, but less than they were capable of. Workers who consistently exceeded the productivity norm or fell short of it were subjected to social pressure to conform. Another norm concerned supervisors‘ behaviour. Supervisors were expected to be friendly and informal with the men: one who was more formal and officious was strongly disapproved of. Finally, there were two informal groups in the room, with some rivalry between them. The Bank Wiring Room showed clearly how social relationships between workers were important determinants of work behaviour. These relationships were often more influential than either official company policy or monetary rewards

Kajian Hawthorne Kajian
ini merupakan kajian sistematik pertama yang mendedahkan pengaruh faktor manusia dalam situasi pekerjaan (Berkley & Rouse, 1990). Kajian ini mendapati bahawa banyak masalah wujud dalam hubungan pekerja dan pengurus, bukan disebabkan kekurangan pengkhususan tugas atau upah yang mencukupi ; tetapi disebabkan pengaruh sosial dan tekanan psikologi. Apabila pencahayaan kumpulan ujian ditingkatkan, daya pengeluaran didapati bertambah sebagaimana telah dijangkakan, sungguhpun pertambahan itu tidak tetap. Namun demikian, terdapat juga kecenderungan bagi daya pengeluaran untuk terus bertambah sekalipun pencahayaannya kemudian dikurangkan. FEM 3104 /PJJ/SEM KEDUA 20102011
70
Dalam satu set uji kaji yang baru, sekumpulan kecil pekerja telah diletakkan di dlm bilik yg berasingan dan beberapa pembolehubah ditukar. “Upah ditambah, tempoh waktu rehat yang berbeza lamanya diperkenalkan, masa bekerja dalam sehari dan seminggu lamanya diperkenalkan”. Para penyelidik yang bertindak sebagai penyelia juga membenarkan kumpulan2 itu memilih sendiri waktu rehat dan boleh mengeluarkan pendapat berhubung dengan apa-apa perubahan lain yang dijangkakan. Sekali lagi hasilnya didapati meningkat mengikut masa tetapi ia juga naik dan turun secara tidak tetap.
FEM 3104 /PJJ/SEM KEDUA 20102011
71
Kajian
yg telah dijalankan oleh Elton Mayor ini telah membawa sumbangan yang besar dan baru dalam dunia pengurusan. Menurut Cooper (1980), hasil uji kaji Hawthorne telah menyumbangkan kepada revolusi baru dalam ideologi organisasi dan pengurusan melalui dua cara iaitu mencabar pendekatan fizikal @ kejuruteraan untuk meningkatkan motivasi dan menjadikan tekanan pertama dalam pendekatan struktur dan hierarki pada organisasi. Dalam ertikata lain: “tiada cara saintifik atau cara terbaik untuk memotivasikan pekerja supaya lebih produktif melainkan dengan memberikan autoriti kepada pekerja untuk menguruskan organisasi. FEM 3104 /PJJ/SEM KEDUA 20102011
72
Ekoran daripada ujikaji Hawthorne, corak latihan pengurusan dalam organisasi tertentu telah mula diubah. Daripada kemahiran teknik kepada kemahiran pengurusan manusia. Kajian Mayo ini telah melahirkan satu minat baru mengenai dinamik kumpulan di kalangan pengurusan dan manfaat kumpulan sebagai tambahan kepada tumpuan mereka yg dahulu terhadap ‘pekerja secara individu’. FEM 3104 /PJJ/SEM KEDUA 20102011
73
Kajian Hawthorne dimulakan sebagai satu percubaan untuk menyelidiki kaitan antara takat pencahayaan di tempat kerja dan daya pengeluaran para pekerja. Para penyelidik Western Electric telah membahagikan pekerja kepada kumpulan ujian yang sengaja dikenakan perubahan-perubahan pencahayaan dan kumpulan kawalan yang pencahayaannya sentiasa dalam keadaan tetap FEM 3104 /PJJ/SEM KEDUA 20102011

The human development indices: at the forefront of HD measurement development
The HDI (Human Development Index) - a summary measure of human development
The GDI (Gender-related Development Index) - the HDI adjusted for gender inequality The GEM (Gender Empowerment Measure) - Measures gender equality in economic and political
participation and decision making
The HPI (Human Poverty Index) - Captures the level of human poverty Others

Why the HDI? The fundamental conceptual shift: •Human
development is both an outcome and a process of enlarging people’s choices to lead lives they value; • Economic growth is only a means, though an important one, for human development. Human development accounting: breath vs focus
