| Abstract: | Russell's summary article "Contemporary Issues of Concern to Psychologists" (1958) included a brief discussion of several possible federal solutions to the need for increased educational research with a reference to the current federal program designed to facilitate educational research: the Cooperative Research Program of the United States Office of Education. Russell indicated that the APA had expressed official interest in this program. The thought occurred that it might be of interest to know the extent to which APA members were involved in this program. For the 252 projects for which there was information available, 136 had or have one or more APA members as Project Directors. It would seem that psychologists do have an interest in the Cooperative Research Program, and are participating in this educational research enterprise.
