What is the branch of psychology that studies the ways in which natural selection and adaptation can explain behavior and mental processes?
evolutionary psychology
Evolutionary psychology studies the roots of behavior and mental processes using principles of?
natural selection.
What is the branch of psychology which studies problems in the workplace and other kinds of organizations?
The branch of psychology that studies problems in the workplace and other kinds of organizations is called Industrial-Organizational (I-O) Psychology. It focuses on topics such as employee selection and assessment, workplace motivation and satisfaction, leadership, organizational culture and change, and other aspects related to improving productivity and well-being in organizations.
What is the difference between Organizational Psychology and General Psychology?
There seems to be a trend, where both industrial psychology and organizational psychology are used interchangeably nowadays. There is the field of industrial-organizational psychology as well, which encompasses both. Industrial psychologists have been concerned with individual factors in selection, placement, job analysis and design, safety and training while Organizational psychologists, on the other hand, have examined the role of interpersonal relations, and individual differences especially in modifying and changing organizations, examining decision making, group dynamics, leadership, organizational development and change. Industrial psychology is labeled as more empirical, experimental and precise as they test and select the best people o match the demands of job, and organizational psychology is mostly labeled as clinical, humanistic and they use more qualitative methods to obtain their data.
Scope of industrial psychology?
=>Personnel selection (selection and recruitment)=>Personnel development (training employees, performance of employees and executives)=>Human engineering (motivating, change in machine design to achieve case in operating of machines)=>Productivity study(removing fatigue and improving environment to increase production)=>Appraisal management (development of management skills and performance appraisal management)=>Safety measure =>Labor relation(maintaining sound relation)=>And others

Adaptation which allows for natural selection is called?
Adaptation does not allow for natural selection: natural selection causes adaptation.
Is natural selection a form of adaptation?
Natural selection is what causes adaptation.
Is adaptation part of natural selection?
Adaptation is the result of natural selection.
Why is adaptation essential to understanding natural selection?
Because adaptation is the directly visible result of natural selection.
Is adaptation a cause of natural selection?
No, it's exactly the other way around: natural selection causes adaptation.
What is the relationship between adaptation and natural section?
Here is a quote: "The relationship between adaptation and natural selection does not go both ways. Whereas greater relative adaptation leads to natural selection, natural selection does not necessarily lead to greater adaptation." I do not recall who said it, but this is what the relationship between both is. Here is a quote: "The relationship between adaptation and natural selection does not go both ways.

How does adaptation fit into natural selection?
Adaptation and evolution all have to do with how an animal or a species depend on there environment. Adaptation is how the species adapts to there environment.Adaptation is caused by evolution by natural selection.
How do adaptations contribute to species survival?
In short we have a a very powerful process at work, Natural Selection, perhaps not entirely the only process, but the most formidable in explaining all the diversity of life. Natural selection is the gradual, non-random process by which biological traits become either more or less common in a population as a function of differential reproduction of their bearers. It is a key mechanism of evolution. Please review the links below in sources for a better review of adaptation.
Natural selection allows a species to change in response to its environment. What is the process by which a species becomes better suited to its environment called?
Adaptation (I'm studying the same thing ;)
Successful reproduction is the fourth step of selection?
the 4th step of natural selection
