On-line computers in psychology: The last 10 years, the next 10 years—The challenge and the promise

1980 marks the 10th anniversary of the National Conference on the Use of On-Line Computers in Psychology.

Current advances in distributed processing and the rapid dissemination of inexpensive microprocessors portends even greater change over the next decade.
