Military psychology, when defined broadly, can include a vast array of activities in psychological research, assessment, and treatment. Military psychologists may be either soldiers or civilians. The field can encompass every aspect of the human mind that interests the military., but researchers focus on the psychology of military organization, military life, and the psychology of combat.Military psychologists are intimately involved in testing recruits for intelligence and aptitude for military specializations, and helping to find more effective ways of training them. A critical subset of such testing focuses on identifying and optimally training officers and other leaders.
According to Driskell and Olmstead military psychology is a microcosm of all psychology disciplines and as such provides opportunities to psychologists of all persuasions.As a case in point, Mike Mathews (president of the Military Psychology division of The American Psychological Association) notes that members of The Society for Military Psychology include, clinical and counseling psychologists, experimental psychologists, human factor engineers, industrial psychologists and social psychologists.
THESE NOTES ARE ACCORDING TO ALL GREAT PSYCHOLOGIST
