Abstract: Students in I/O internships are encouraged to apply theoretical knowledge to real-world contexts. Despite their training, however, students frequently encounter and inadvertently perpetuate entrenched organizational misconceptions and false statements. Academic instructors are increasingly frustrated by this phenomenon. I developed a method to enhance students' capacity to utilize I/O psychological science.
