Behavioral Science in the Army: A Corporate History of the Army Research Institute
Abstract
The U. S. Army Research Institute for the Behavioral and Social Sciences (ARI) history lies first in understanding the psychological theory and trends surrounding the beginnings of applied psychology, particularly in the military, and in gaining a better understanding of people at work. The broad purpose of this history is to develop a guide for management and employee development for research managers, planners, programmers, and developers today and in the future. This history can serve a number of different groups: psychologists with a general interest in the history of psychology; scientists with a special interest in areas of emphasis within ARI (such as selection, classification, training, soldier-machine interface, leadership, and microelectronic applications); ARI managers and employees; and proponents and sponsors whose informed involvement is needed in ARI research.
