Biography

Stephen Guastello is presently working as a Professor at, Department of Psychology, Marquette University, USA. His research interests fall into several areas. The largest concerns nonlinear dynamics (chaos, complexity, and catastrophe theories, and related principles) and their applications to work motivation, work performance, and turnover, occupational safety and health, creativity, group and organizational behavior, and cognitive workload and fatigue. His other interests include the role of macroeconomics in organizational behavior, human-computer interface design, computer-based test interpretations, and expert systems, personality, and organizational behavior. He has taught courses including industrial psychology and organizational development, human factors engineering, theories of personality, general psychology, and chaos and complexity in Psychology. He is Editor in Chief of the journal Nonlinear Dynamics, Psychology, and Life Sciences.
