Abstract
This article examines the sources of American social psychology in terms of the author's induction to the field just before World War II at Reed, Stanford, and Harvard; war experience with Hovland, Stouffer, and Rose; and postwar developments. The author advocates a historically and socially contextualized social psychology.Keywords
