Answer: (iii) Individual and Group Behaviour in Organizations

Justification:

  • Organizational Behaviour (Robbins): "A field of study that investigates the impact that individuals, groups and structure have on behaviour within organizations."
  • Therefore OB studies both individual (personality, perception, learning, motivation) and group (team dynamics, leadership, communication, conflict, power) behaviour in organizational context.
  • Why not others:
    • (i) Financial Performance - Finance subject
    • (ii) Machines - Operations/Engineering
    • (iv) Structure only - Incomplete; OB includes behaviour and structure/culture

OB's three levels: Individual → Group → Organization System.
