Journal of Occupational Health Psychology - History

History

The idea for the journal emerged in discussions that took place in the 1990s among Steven Sauter and his colleagues at the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, Gary VandenBos of the American Psychological Association, and James Campbell Quick, a professor of psychology at the University of Texas at Arlington. With Quick named as editor, the journal was first published in 1996. It "focuses on the work environment, the individual, and the work-family interface." While published by the American Psychological Association, the journal has also become associated with the Society for Occupational Health Psychology, and membership in the Society brings an automatic subscription.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    Systematic philosophical and practical anti-intellectualism such as we are witnessing appears to be something truly novel in the history of human culture.
    Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)

    Philosophy of science without history of science is empty; history of science without philosophy of science is blind.
    Imre Lakatos (1922–1974)

    No one can understand Paris and its history who does not understand that its fierceness is the balance and justification of its frivolity. It is called a city of pleasure; but it may also very specially be called a city of pain. The crown of roses is also a crown of thorns. Its people are too prone to hurt others, but quite ready also to hurt themselves. They are martyrs for religion, they are martyrs for irreligion; they are even martyrs for immorality.
    Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)
