Abstract

"The engineer has contributed to the general welfare by reducing drudgery, by providing new entertainment, by saving time, and by increasing our material possessions. There is a general feeling, however, that he can make additional contributions by taking a greater interest in social and economic problems." "Psychology and engineering can work together advantageously in bringing about greater happiness in a technological civilization." (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)
