Abstract Text Scholars in the disciplines of human resource management (HRM) and organizational behavior(OB) have primarily focused on explicit processes and measures in their research, but much of human feeling and behavior is triggered through implicit processing outside of conscious awareness.In this article, we discuss how explicit and implicit processes interact to shape work emotions,attitudes, and behaviors, and we suggest that scholars should incorporate biological measures forassessing implicit as well as explicit processes into their researchdesigns. We provide guidance forsuch endeavors by describing how several biological implicit measures can be used in HRM and OBresearch. These measures include cortisol measurement, skin conductance, event related potential(ERP), and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI).
