Information and conclusions drawn were taken from an analysis of a questionnaire. The sample contained 80-90% of appropriate population. Data from 1561--representing about 30% of total membership APA--were tabulated and analyzed. Results indicate that a large proportion of members of APA were in military service and felt that their training and skills were well used. Psychologists who had been engaged in academic work were more frequently commissioned directly than the clinical psychologist. Composition of 3 major services was not proportional as the Navy received more psychologists holding the Ph.D., disproportionate numbers entered the Navy by direct commission, the Air Force by voluntary enlistment, and the Army through the draft. Several recommendations are made including the following: (1) need for further study in regard to the plans of the National Military Establishment; (2) a wide audience of military officers should have more information about the service a psychologist can render; (3) level of competence and area of specialization for each such job should be determined; (4) evaluation of value of establishment of a separate corps or unit of psychologists.
