Abstract: | A review of the life and contributions of one of the foremost psychologists of our time. The review covers the contributions of Guilford to experimental psychology—experimental esthetics, sensory processes, perception, and learning; statistical psychology—psychophysics, analysis, test theory and evaluation; measurement of mental abilities—aptitudes of high level personnel, structure of the intellect, and creativity; and personality—tests, questionnaires, and inventories by Guilford and his associates. A complete bibliography shows that Guilford published either as sole author or as co-author 21 books; 29 monographs; 158 articles; and 21 tests, manuals, and profile sheets. A portrait of Guilford is included. (7-p. bibliogr.) (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved) |
