Unification through division histories of the divisions of the American Psychological Association

Presents histories of the first nine divisions of the American Psychological Association (APA) in this series. The project began with a survey of existing division histories, some of which had been written for the 1992 APA centennial. From that survey, and word of mouth, chapter authors were located. This first volume includes chapters whose authors could meet the first possible deadline for inclusion. /// Some chapters were prepared form scratch: others are adaptations of material originally prepared for inclusion in other venues.

  • "This is the 2nd volume in a set that will include the histories of as many of the American Psychological Association's (APA) 49 divisions as possible. About 50 yrs ago the APA was reorganized around a set of divisions structured to represent the diverse interests of constituent groups of psychologists within the organization at that time. Although the number of divisions has grown since, the basic structure remains intact. It is through these divisions that the unity of the APA was reestablished. By providing homes for groups with similar interests in research, practice, and policy, the divisions can work more effectively on many problems of local interest than can the association as a whole. Further, because they are smaller, they are more flexible and can change more readily as fields change. So effective have these divisions become that some psychologists identify more closely with these interest groups than with the organization as a whole.
