Examples of the Behavioural Science Approach

General Framework

The Behavioural Science approach to the study of management re-emphasises the distinction between an opinion and a research finding. The research methodology that led to the research finding is of as much interest as the finding itself in that the strength of the finding is directly related to the rigour and validity of the methodology.

In the following two examples, two persons should work together to describe both the methodology and the research findings of these behavioural science research projects.

Individual Components

  1. Frederick Fiedler’s study of leadership – a contingency theory
  2. Stanley Schacter’s study of cohesive versus non-cohesive team performance
