Do you have what it takes to become a pilot, bombardier, or navigator in World War II? Find out in Psychology Takes Flight!
Psychology Takes Flight explores the work of psychologists in the U.S. Army Air Forces during World War II. Psychological science played a key role in the war effort, as psychologists were called upon to redesign aircraft for maximum safety and efficiency, train and classify new recruits, and administer complex psychomotor tests. Visitors are invited to assess their skills and knowledge with interactive recreations of original tests.
The museum is open Tuesdays and Thursdays - Saturdays from 11 am - 4 pm and Wednesdays from 1 - 8 pm.
