IAAP President Edwin A. Fleishman has received the American Psychological Association’s I980 Distinguished Scientific Award for Applications of Psychology. The plaque presented to Fleishman at the Annual Meeting of APA in Montreal con- tains the following citation:

Edwin FLEISHMAN For outstanding creativity and soundness of his programmatic research and applica- tions over the past quarter century in two major areas - leadership behavior and human performance. In the leadership area, he developed attitude and behavioral measures of fundamental leadership dimensions and related them to criteria of group effectiveness and social climate. In the area of human performance, he developed taxonomies of physical-performance, kinesthetic, and perceptual-motor abilities through multivariate-experimental studies that linked individual differences with experimental psychology - the two disciplines of scientific psychology. For ex- ample, he traced the contributions of specific abilities through different stages of training and learning. His research has addressed pervasive societal problems, pro- vided concepts and methods for enhanced generalizations from laboratory to field settings, and bridged theoretical and applied psychology.

Ed is currently president of the Advanced Research Resources Organization in Washington, DC.

L’Association Amkricaine de Psychologie a decerne son ‘Distinguished Scientific Award’ pour 1980 a Edwin Fleishman, President de I’AIPA, pour ses travaux de Psychologie Appliquee. Sur la plaque offerte a Fleishman lors de la rewontre an- nuelle de I’APA, a Montreal, figure le texte suivant:

Edwin FLEISHMAN Pour sa creativitt exceptionnelle, I’importance de son programme de recherches et d’applications, pendant les 25 dernieres annees, dans deux domaines importants: celui du comportement de leader et celui de Ia performance humaine. Pour ce qui est du domaine de leadership, iI a developpt des mesures d’attitude et de comporte- ment concernant les dimensions fondamentales du leadership en liaison avec les critkres d’efficacite du groupe et le c h a t social. Quant au domaine de la perfor- mance humaine, il a dtveloppe une taxonomie des aptitudes physiques, kinesthesi- ques et perceptjvo-motrices A partir d’ktudes expkrimentales multivariees - etudes experimentales qui mettent en relation les differences individuelles avec la psychologie experimentale - les deux domaines de la psychologie scientifique. Par exemple, il a identifit la contribution d’aptitudes spkcifiques dans diffkrentes etapes de la formation et de I’apprentissage. Ses recherches ont aborde les problhmes sociaux actuels, fourni des concepts et des mkthodes qui permettent des generalisa- tions allant du laboratoire aux applications SUT le terrain, et ktabli des liaisons entre psychologie theorique et psychologie appliqute.

Ed est actuellement President de 1’Advanced Research Resources Organization a Washington, DC.

Applied psychology at the Wingate Institute for Physical Education and Sport (Wingate, Israel)

The Wingate lnstitute is an institution involved in the field of physical education and sport. In addition to the administration, sport facilities, library, publishing depart- ment and hotel - all related to physical education and sport interests - the Institute has three instructional institutions (Physical Education Teachers’ College, School of Physical Therapy, and School of Coaches) as well as a Department of Research and Sports Medicine.

Psychology applied to the area of physical education and sport, and other related areas, is taught in the three instructional institutions. Research in applied psychology - mainly sport psychology and educational psychology - is performed in the Department of Research (Dr Ema Geron) and by some of the lecturers in the Physical Education Teachers’ College (Dr A. Sherman, Dr M. Sterzer, D. Eldar, S. Raviv) and the School of Coaches (Dr G. Weingarten, U. Shaeffer).

Four general courses of psychology are taught in the Physical Education Teachers’ College: Introduction to Psychology, Developmental Psychology, Educa- tional Psychology, and Psychological and Social Aspects of Sport. In addition, the students at the College have available some psychological courses related to their specialization. For example, for those specializing in Physical Education for Infants there is Early Psychological Development, and for those specializing in Physical Education for Exceptional Children there is Children’s Psychopathology.
