CASE STUDY ONLY FOR CHAPTER 2 I WILL UPLOAD BOOK IN LINK BELOW AS WELL AS CASE STUDY QUESTION
You will be assigned one of the Case Study assignments in the “Applied Case Study” boxes at the end of each chapter. In addressing the problem posed in the Case Study, your goal is to use information from chapter 2 to resolve the issue. This paper will not require or assume knowledge other than that covered in class lectures and your textbook. The papers are not meant to be formal research papers, and your writing can be conversational in nature. For instance, imagine that you are an Industrial/Organizational Psychologist who is sitting down with the CEO of the company and giving them advice about how to solve their problem by using information from your text.
CASE STUDY-ON THE JOB Applied Case Study
To become a veterinarian, a person must pass
the North American Veterinary Licensing Exam
(NAVLE), a national exam typically taken after
graduation from veterinary school. This exam has 360
items and is offered twice a year. Examples of ques-
tions on the exam include the following:
1. Which of the following is the most common
cause of maxillary sinusitis in the horse?
(A) Bacterial lower respiratory tract disease
extending into the sinus
(B) Infection and abscessation of a tooth root
extending into the sinus
(C) Inhaled foreign bodies lodging in the sinus
(D) Puncture wounds extending into the max-
illary sinus
2. An African gray parrot that is presented for
necropsy is suspected to have psittacosis. Which
of the following findings is most likely to con-
firm the diagnosis?
(A) Hepatomegaly and splenomegaly on gross
examination
(B) Identification of the causative organism by
Gram’s stain
(C) Isolation and identification of Chlamydia
psittaci
(D) Presence of acid-fast organisms in the liver
To ensure that this national exam covers the
important information needed to be a veterinarian,
the National Board of Veterinary Medical Examiners
decided to conduct a job analysis of the position of
entry-level veterinary practitioner. Given that there
are over 60,000 veterinarians throughout the coun-
try, this was indeed a daunting task. This number is
compounded by the fact that veterinarians work in
a variety of settings such as private practice,
governmental agencies, veterinary medicine col-
leges, pharmaceutical companies, zoos, and research
laboratories. Furthermore, major job duties can
range from direct health care to research to disease
control.
1. How would you conduct such a large-scale job
analysis?
2. In determining the sample of veterinarians that
would participate in the job an
alysis, what
factors (e.g., region of the country) would you
need to consider?
3. How many veterinarians would you include in
your job analysis?
