N2  - The progress of applied psychology in England has been hampered by philosophical entanglements, natural conservatism, a marked psychological tradition, the disciplinary influence of pure research, and the centralizing tendency of British educational policy. Greatest advances have been in the field of child guidance. Vocational guidance schemes have been set up by local education committees, but without fully trained psychologists. The National Institute of Industrial Psychology has stimulated and co-ordinated much industrial research. Child psychotherapy is done by trained psychologists working with medical officers rather than by psychiatrists. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2012 APA, all rights reserved)<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
