Applying Behavioral Science: Current Projects

This is the second in an annual series of articles reviewing activities, concepts, and research on planned change. The first review (Lake, 1968) focused upon concepts and research. This article will review activities which apply behavioral science knowledge to community development, mental health, health agencies, public school systems, higher education, product organizations, Peace Corps, and religious institutions.

Material for this article was collected through an informal survey sent to 300 persons known to pursue professional careers which involve the planning of change. The thoroughness of our description depends upon the amount and quality of materials received. The reviews are meant to be informative, not evaluative.

The reader will quickly recognize that most projects are multifaceted, employ many assumptions, and utilize many strategies of changing.
