The profession of industrial and organizational psychology addresses the full range of human interactions in organizational settings. Members of the profession may be researchers, teachers, practitioners or administrators. They work in several settings including in business, government, consulting, and academia. SIOP Fellows may be recognized for outstanding contributions to the profession in any of these areas.
Dr. Christopher M. Berry has an impressive research and publication record. Just 6 years after earning his PhD he was invited to serve as an Associate Editor for the Journal of Applied Psychology. Four years after that, he was made a Full Professor and now holds the endowed John F. Mee Chair of Management at the Kelley School of Business, Indiana University. Dr. Berry's research can be separated into two broad streams. The first focuses on the validity and fairness of psychological testing for high stakes selection. The second on the conceptualization, measurement, and prediction of organizational citizenship and counterproductive work behaviors. He's received numerous professional awards and his research has been cited over 4,300 times according to Google Scholar.
To be considered for SIOP Fellow status, a member must be nominated by another member, and endorsed by at least three more SIOP Fellows. A member who has been active in the Society for ten years or more is eligible based on meaningful, sustained and unusual impact on the field.
