摘要：
Between 1880 and 1930, entrepreneurial Individuals in academic psychology and engineering converged on a common interest in the human side of enterprise. Both disciplines subsequently overlapped in marketing their professional business services. Separating from academic psychology, applied psychologists alluded to being ''human engineers'' offering a personnel selection technology to industry. Conversely, scientific management diverged from engineering with psychological claims of fostering a ''mental revolution'' of management-labor cooperation. Although psychology's testing technology was accepted, scientific management's psychological claims were challenged. This article details the entrepreneurial individuals (e.g., F. W. Taylor H. L. Gantt, H. S. Person, H, Munsterberg, W. D, Scott, and W. V. Bingham), disciplinary marketing, and historical context surrounding these developments.
