Abstract
Some years ago, as the chief psychologist of a large county in Britain, I carried out research to assess what teachers and schools required most from psychologists. The work was entitled 'A study of the needs of the School Psychological Service in one county, assumed by Head Teachers', and was later published in the Bulletin of the British Psychological Society (1970). The survey considered four basic questions in the form of a letter sent to over 400 headteachers. A similar study has been carried out among teachers in international education to obtain their views and a paper concerning this study appears in this issue. The editorial below considers my earlier study among teachers in one local authority and what they felt they required from psychologists. The psychologist's role in fostering international relations and developing international thinking is also considered, and finally, there are examples and a discussion on the psychologist's role in dealing with the universal problems that bridge national boundaries.
