The Journal of Organizational Behavior is a peer-reviewed academic journal published eight times a year by Wiley-Blackwell. The journal publishes empirical reports and theoretical reviews spanning the spectrum of organizational behavior research. It publishes research conducted at the individual person, group, organization, or mixed levels.[1] It was established in 1980 as the Journal of Occupational Behavior, obtaining its current title in 1988. The founding editor-in-chief was Cary Cooper (Lancaster University);[2] the current editor is Suzanne S. Masterson (University of Cincinnati).

The editorial mission of the journal is to "publish empirical reports and theoretical reviews of research in the field of organizational behavior". The themes of "job design, stress, and careers" are of particular significance, as is the context in which behaviors take place.[3]
