Abstract
For some time a controversy has existed concerning the merits of the teaching of psychology in high schools. Since little, if any, research has been done in this area, it was decided that an effort should be made to answer the question of the effectiveness of a high school psychology course. The outcomes of such a course may be evaluated in terms of (1) achievement and (2) adjustment. Accordingly, an experimental study into the nature of the effect in achievement and the effect in adjustment produced by a high school psychology course has been undertaken in this study.
