Comment on Environmental Psychology and Social Psychology

Rutgers - The State University

This paper comments on Altman's description of environ mental psychology and its relation to social psychology. It sug gests that a distinction be made between environmental psychology and the field of environment and behavior. It argues that Altman's description of the distinguishing features of environmental psy chology represent the orientation of non-social psychologists in volved in the field while social psychologists in the field gen erally adhere to a more traditional orientation. In accord with Altman's position this paper suggests that social psychology and environmental psychology can mutually benefit one another and dis cusses ways in which they can do so.
