To speak or not to speak: The role of the behavioral scientist revisited.

Discusses M. L. King's (1968) article on the role of the behavioral scientist in the civil rights movement and notes the lack of research and involvement by psychologists in both research into significant social issues and the civil rights struggle. A plea is made for professional self-examination and a reevaluation of values and principles. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved)
