TY - JOUR PY - 1949// TI - The genetics controversy and the psychological sciences in the USSR JO - American psychologist, The A1 - Bauer, Raymond A. SP - 418 EP - 421 VL - 4 IS - 10 N2 - The controversy over genetic theory in the Soviet Union has spread to psychology and psychiatry. Statements by various Soviet authors are cited which show that inheritance is unstable and not important. "While we are primarily concerned with the meaning of theories they were concerned with the 'effect' of these theories on the people who use them and on other people in society. Science in the Soviet Union has become progressively less empirical in its search for laws." (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2012 APA, all rights reserved)
