Child psychology should further the individual's understanding and acceptance of himself. Therefore, child psychology should become an integral part of education. Research is needed (1) to study self-development from a genetic point of view, and (2) to ascertain the capacity of a child for self-discovery and for understanding of others. Some of the unanswered questions include (1) relationship of intellect to attitudes, (2) interaction of rational processes and emotional reactions, (3) roles of parent, teacher and clinician in education.
