As part of a continuing effort to expand the information available through the online OSU Psychology Museum, we are proud to present African-American Pioneers in Psychology. You will find brief biographies for each early African-American psychologists. The purpose of this page is not provide a comprehensive overview of these men and women of African descent who contributed to psychology. Instead, this page should serve as an overview to the area, serving as a starting point for those who wish to explore this topic further.

Several people have contributed to the development of this site: Dr. Charles Abramson led the development of this site, while the information on the psychologists profiled within came from the research of Roy Barnett, Jr. The graphics for the site were designed by Dr. Caleb Lack. If you have any questions about the information on this page, please do not hesitate to contact Dr. Charles Abramson.
