Marvin Dunnette

Marvin D. Dunnette (30 September 1926 - 18 September 2007) was an American psychology professor and one of the key figures in the history of industrial and organizational psychology.

He graduated from the University of Minnesota with a degree in Chemical Engineering in 1948. He developed and validated the Minnesota Engineering Analogies Test as his doctoral dissertation requirement. Shortly after obtaining his Ph.D. in 1954 studying under Donald Paterson, he joined 3M Company as Manager of Employee Relations Research.

He left 3M in 1960 to become Associate Professor of Psychology at the University of Minnesota. Perhaps his best known book is the Handbook of Industrial and Organizational Psychology published in 1976.

In 1994 he was one of 52 signatories on "Mainstream Science on Intelligence[1]," an editorial written by Linda Gottfredson and published in the Wall Street Journal, which declared the consensus of the signing scholars on issues related to race and intelligence following the publication of the book The Bell Curve.
