| Description | Article titled 'War-Time Psychology in Germany, The United States and Great Britain.' (no. 29) by Philip E. Vernon.
The article begins by outlining the extent of psychology operations underlying the German army. A good deal is known about the German efforts of officer selection through reports of behaviours under fighting conditions and interviews. In the United States a great effort has been made to mobilise psychology staff to engage in research on the military. In Britain, initial efforts were made by Universities, but these were poorly coordinated. However, since then, a million men and women have been tested at selection centres for recruitment purposes. |
