Abstract: Excerpts from the Foreword: This partial bibliography on rural psychology attempts to bring together references on the social psychology of rural life and on the psychology of farm management, or the scientific management of agricultural labor. It has been difficult to define the scope of this bibliography as it borders on so many other fields, and in many cases the psychological data have been collected only as a part, frequently an incidental part, of other projects. To compile a comprehensive bibliography, it would be necessary to search the literature on social psychology, rural sociology, state and local government, farm management and relief. A thorough search of these fields has not been made in compiling the present bibliography. However, works in these classes known to refer specifically to rural psychology have been examined for inclusion. The references included have been classified, as follows: 1. General; 2. Attitudes and opinions, with subdivisions under government and politics, marketing and marketing associations, and relief; 3. Family and community life; and 4. Farm labor. An author and subject index is appended
