Peng Zhao

Peng Zhao serves as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Management at the Carlos Alvarez College of Business, University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA), appointed in 2021. His academic foundation includes a PhD in Management from Indiana University's Kelley School of Business, complemented by an MS from Peking University and a BA from Zhejiang University.

His research program systematically investigates:

• Fairness and validity of individual differences (personality, cognitive ability) in job performance prediction
• Dynamic evolution of job attitudes and behavioral consequences (e.g., turnover)
• Team composition, processes, and performance outcomes

Teaching responsibilities encompass Organizational Behavior, Human Resource Management, and Research Methods, bridging theoretical rigor with practical application.

Recent publications (2023-2011) reveal methodological sophistication through meta-analytic approaches across organizational phenomena. Key thematic clusters include predictive bias in personnel selection (2014-2020), team tenure-performance relationships (2020), work-life spillover dynamics (2019), and foundational memory processes (2011-2013). This trajectory demonstrates consistent contributions to Journal of Applied Psychology, Personnel Psychology, and Journal of Vocational Behavior.
