Abstract

In recent months American psychologists have shown increasing concern over how they might most effectively contribute to the national welfare in this time of emergency. An excellent example of this concern is Dael Wolfle's "Annual report" (Amer. Psychologist, 1950, 5, 634-637). This report, together with most similar discussions of psychology's role in the emergency, is concerned mainly with "the best overall utilization of the nation's psychologists." We would like to suggest another topic for the consideration of psychologists concerned with the national welfare. We feel that it is important for us as psychologists to examine the pacifist arguments. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2012 APA, all rights reserved)
