These capacities enable young children both to share experience with oth- ers and, at the same time, to discern their unique perspectives on the shared situation and even to influence it via processes of cooperative communi- cation (e.g., the pointing gesture and then conven- tional linguistic symbols).

Jeanne Marecek Since its early days the field of psychology has issued pronouncements about women and set out prescriptions for their mental health and proper conduct. Women in the discipline often dissented from the pronouncements and prescrip­ tions of mainstream psychology, but for much of psychology’s one hundred- year history women’s voices were few and far between. The past quarter of a century has witnessed a dramatic increase in the overall number of women in psychology. Moreover, many women, committed to feminism in their personal lives, have been committed to feminist ideals in their work as researchers, thera­ pists, and teachers as well. Two organizations, one within the main professional association (the Division of the Psychology of Women of the American Psycho­ logical Association, established in 1973) and one outside (the Association for Women in Psychology, established in 1969), exist, providing a locus of colle- giality and institutional support for feminist scholarship and activism (Mednick and Urbanski 1991; Tiefer 1991).

We are in her home in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Today is Tuesday, June 2nd, 1998. We have some questions here; we will begin with questions addressing her general intellectual history. The first question, describe your family background along with any childhood and adolescent experiences that may be of interest. Include the educational and occupational characteristics of your parents, where you were born, where you grew up, what your schooling was like and any military experiences you may have. Also include earlier work experiences. Gleason: Okay, my parents were immigrants from Transylvania; they were Hungarian speakers and I was born in Cleveland, Ohio and went to public school in Cleveland, Ohio. I graduated from Cleveland Heights High School in 1949 or thereabout and then came to Radcliffe as an undergraduate. My father was in the construction business, more or less. He was rather an unsuccessful businessman, but my mother and father did not go to college. I had one brother who was six years older than I was and he had cerebral palsy, but he was very, very bright and I think that my interactions with him probably had a substantial effect on my life.

This e-content must be read in continuation to the previously drafted content on Introduction to Psychology for better understanding. This E-content material designed by Kumar Hritwik is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License. 1 Page Kumar Hritwik E- Content material ANS College, Nabinagar Assistant Professor Psychology Magadh University, Bodh Gaya The breadth and diversity of psychology can be seen by looking at some of its best-known thinkers. While each theorist may have been part of an overriding school of thought, each brought a unique perspective to the field of psychology. The list below provides a snapshot of the careers of leading psychologists and their most important contributions to the field. Developed using the rigorously generated study of "The 100 Most Eminent Psychologists of the 20th Century" as a guide, this list is by no means exhaustive. Instead, the purpose of this list is to offer a glimpse into some of the major theoretical outlooks that have influenced not only psychology but also the larger culture. B. F. Skinner B.F. Skinner's staunch behaviorism made him a dominating force in psychology and therapy techniques based on his theories are still used extensively today, including behavior modification and token economies.

Dividing the Child, the fortunate collaboration of one of this country's finest psychologists, Eleanor Maccoby, 1 and one of its finest academic lawyers, Robert Mnookin,2 fills an important space on that shelf. The importance of empirical research on social and economic pat­ terns associated with divorce and child custody cannot easily be over­ stated.
