Dr. Tetrick is a fellow of the American Psychological Association, the Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology, the American Psychological Society, and the European Academy of Occupational Health Psychology. She has served as Chair of the Human Resources Division of the Academy of Management and has represented the Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology (Division 14) on the American Psychological Association Council of Representatives. Currently, she is on the Board of Scientific Affairs of the American Psychological Association and is serving as President of the Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology.

Dr. Tetrick’s teaching interests include occupational health psychology, motivation, the employment exchange relationship (psychological contracts, organizational commitment) and compensation. In addition, she enjoys teaching statistics and research methods.

Dr. Tetrick has two areas of research. One is in occupational health psychology including such topics as safety, occupational stress, and the work-family interface. The other area of research focuses primarily on psychological contracts and the exchange relationship between employees and their organizations. A common underlying interest in both of these lines of research is incorporating a global perspective in understanding employees’ experiences of the work environment.
