I propose to analyze the behavior of psychologists. Why are they not currently developing the pure science of human behavior from which such tremendous technological advances would certainly flow? How are we to explain the continuing flight from the experimental field? Where have the experimental psychologists gone, and what are they doing instead? And why? And, above all, what steps can be taken to remedy the situation? (p. 364)
