Assistant Professor of Business Cassondra Batz-Barbarich was recently published as a second author of the paper "Well-Being: The Ultimate Criterion for Organizational Sciences" in the Journal of Business and Psychology.

Batz-Barbarich wrote the paper in collaboration with Louis Tay of Purdue University, Lui-Qin Yang of Portland State University, and Christopher W. Wiese of Georgia Institute of Technology.

"For too long, organizational science has implicitly or explicitly endorsed job performance as the ultimate criterion (or the bottom line for organizational performance). We propose that a broader vision of well-being–or optimal functioning–should be the ultimate criterion," the abstract of the paper states.

The authors seek to offer a more complex criteria for well-being in the workplace.

The article can be accessed on PsyArXiv Preprints.
