APA Visiting Scientist Program: 1971-1972.

The American Psychological Association's Visiting Scientist Program has now completed its twelfth and final year of operation as a National Science Foundation-sponsored activity. The APA is planning to continue the program under the auspices of the Educational Affairs Office while seeking alternate funding. As in the past, the Visiting Scientist Program provided colleges and small universities with visits from eminent psychologists who offered their services as either scientific lecturers or educational consultants. Over 1,000 such visits have been made to educational institutions across the United States, 84 of which were made during 1971-1972. Throughout its existence the program has maintained the following objectives: (a) to stimulate interest in the scientific aspects of psychology at the collegiate level; (6) to present some of the new developments in psychological research and application; (c) to provide psychology departments with expert consultation regarding curricula, laboratories, staffing, programs, and procedures; (d) to acquaint students with the opportunities for advanced study and scientific and professional careers in psychology, including the teaching of psychology. For the last several years a special effort has been made to include psychologists and institutions which would serve as representatives of minority groups. This year's participants included 12 black psychologists, 9 women psychologists, and 1 Indian psychologist; 14 black institutions, and 2 women's colleges. The reports of the visits were very favorable, and the Educational Affairs Office would like to express its appreciation to all of those who contributed to the success of this year's program.

APA visiting scientist program: 1973-1974.

The American Psychological Association's Visiting Scientist Program has now completed its fourteenth year. Support for the program was provided by a grant from the American Psychological Foundation, contributions from the institutions visited, and budgeted funds from the American Psychological Association. As in the past, the Visiting Scientist Program provided colleges and small universities with visits from eminent psychologists who offered their services as either scientific lecturers or educational consultants. Over 1,000 such visits have been made to educational institutions across the United States, 70 of which were made during 1973-1974. Throughout its existence the program has maintained the following objectives: (a) to stimulate interest in the scientific aspects of psychology at the collegiate level; (b) to present some of the new developments in psychological research and application; (c) to provide psychology departments with expert consultation regarding curricula, laboratories, staffing, programs, and procedures; (d) to acquaint students with the opportunities for advanced study and scientific and professional careers in psychology, including the teaching of psychology. For the last several years a special effort has been made to include psychologists and institutions which would serve as representatives of minority groups.

The reports of the visits were very favorable, and the Educational Affairs Office would like to express its appreciation to all of those who contributed to the success of this year's program. A list of institutions and visiting psychologists is provided. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved)

APA Visiting Psychologist Program: 1971-1972.

The Visiting Psychologist Program has completed its fifth year of operation under the sponsorship of the National Institute of Mental Health. The program is designed to facilitate the dissemination of up-to-date knowledge generated in recent research findings and to provide for the demonstration of innovations in psychological procedures to mental health professionals in service settings by psychologists who are significantly involved in research, training, and delivery of services. The program continues to be well received by agencies and visitors who have participated in it. During the past year, 43 agencies were visited, of which 33 were newly selected agencies, while 10 were return visits to agencies visited the previous year. Forty-four Visiting Psychologists participated in the program. Agencies which received initial visits are listed, with their Visiting Psychologists, in Table 1. Agencies and Visiting Psychologists involved in return visits are listed in Table 2. The Advisory Committee would like to thank all of those who contributed to the success of the program.
