If you only need the buying answer
The current print listing for Psychology Applied to Work is not the cheapest route in the sampled market. The sampled eBook is dramatically lower, so if cost is your main concern, digital is the clear winner. The current print listing still matters for readers who want a kept industrial-organizational psychology text, but it should not be presented as the lower-cost route.

| eBook | Digital market | $49.50 | Check price |
This is not a close contest on immediate cost. Digital wins clearly. The only reason to prefer print is if you specifically want a physical industrial-organizational psychology reference and care more about ownership than price.
What this book actually teaches
An applied-work psychology text matters because it helps students understand how psychological principles shape hiring, performance, motivation, leadership, teams, organizational behavior, and workplace decision-making. A strong book in this area can remain useful later in HR, organizational development, consulting, and applied psychology work.
That makes the content valuable, but it does not change the current market comparison. Right now, the cheaper access route is digital. Print is only for readers who specifically want a physical copy and accept the higher price.
What I would do instead
Choose the eBook if your main goal is cost efficiency. Only buy the current print listing if you know you want a keepable physical copy for later reference. In this market, digital is clearly the better-priced route.
