American Association for Applied Psychology (original) (raw)

For the American Association of Retired Persons, see AARP The American Association for Applied Psychology (AAAP) was founded in 1937 as a national organization for clinical, consulting, educational, and business/industrial psychologists. It lasted for only eight years, merging with the American Psychological Association in 1945. Although short-lived, it has been claimed that some of its work led to what is now the basis of certain models of training in the field.
