SPECIAL SECTION:
MOTIVATING THE TROOPS FOR THE ENERGY WAR
Articles by John M. Darley, Clive Seligman, and Lawrence J. Becker, Paul C. Stern; Jan Hamrin; and an interview with B. F. Skinner by Daniel Yergin
Our piggish consumption of energy continues, only mildly diminished by Presidential rhetoric and the vicissitudes of oil politics. Trying to answer the question of the old song "What'll We Do When the Well Runs Dry?" technologists are struggling to domesticate the sun while energy-policy planners are struggling to come up with a bag full of incentives to hold down wasteful consumption of fossil fuel. Enter social science. The recommendations in this Psychology Today special section come from some of the leading energy-use researchers in ecological psychology. They are based, except for Dr. Skinner's overview, on close observation of how people use and misuse energy in real-life situations.

Merchandising Depression
By Leslie H. Farber
Might the cure be contributing to the disease? A distinguished psychiatrist argues that depression may be achieving celebrity status precisely because more remedies for it have come on the market.
Midlife Encounters: The Menninger Seminars for Businessmen
By Berkeley Rice
The Menninger Executive Seminar promises to help managers become aware of the strains they face and the ways they can cope. Our reporter finds that some of those who go are forced to reassess their lives.
Navigating the Slippery
Stream of Speech
By Ronald A. Cole
Because speech is continuous and
words run together, every utterance
contains words we don't intend
it to. Psycholinguists are
learning just how we distinguish
between I scream and ice cream.
DEPARTMENTS:

Newsline Auditing won't stop tax evaders, but lower taxes or higher fines might; you can spot a future dropout by his dorm-room decor; and other items.
Books /Son of Relaxation Response By James Hassett Behavioral Medicine deserves better than Herbert Benson's The Mind/ Body Effect.
The Brain /Braintapping on Madison Avenue By Daniel Goleman Ad agencies have picked up on neurological technology to help them measure commercials' impact and effectiveness.
