EMPLOYMENT PSYCHOLOGY development of their teaching and supervisory personnel. Even more obvious are the responsibilities of these insti- tutions in the selection and classification of their students according to aptitude and ability; in helping them most wisely to plan the successive steps of their education; and in placing them, on leaving school, in touch with those voca- tional opportunities in which there is the greatest likelihood of individual satisfaction and success. Each of these areas of educational and occupational adjustment offers its chal- lenge to men of scientific temper with an aptitude for per- sonnel research. Society will value whatever genuine contributions these investigators make to employment procedures, vocational guidance, and related aspects of personnel practice, whether in education or in industry. Conclusions wrought from the facts of occupational analysis, individual measurement and vocational experience, with such statistical tools and experi- mental techniques as have here been assembled, will add materially to the sum of sound principles and practical pro- cedures which together form the substance of employment psychology. The ingenuity, skill, and scientific rigor with which this pioneering is done will determine its real value in helping people find their places in what will be, for them and for their employers, the most satisfactory and reward- ing opportunities for work. 222
