Jahoda and IQ research
This is OR and I cannot of course include it. I was a student at Sussex 1967-1970, and in our first days we were given an IQ test. We were told at the time that Prof Jahoda was researching the relationship between IQ and eventual level of degree obtained; but I never saw a follow up. Does anyone have more info?

Category:Economists of innovation
She has been put in the Category:Economists of innovation although she is a psychologist.

Marie Jahoda has been very active in the SPRU with Christopher Freeman and Keith Pavitt.

"Economics of innovation" should be taken in a broader sense including Law (IP), psychology, soociology, neurosciences, etc... Euroflux (talk) 14:38, 26 October 2012 (UTC)

First sentence of the Bigoraphy section is corrupt - probably a previous edit went wrong. What does "henceforward" refer to? And was she imprisoned under Dollfuss or under Schuschnigg?94.192.70.38 (talk) 13:18, 23 July 2013 (UTC)

Ideal Mental Health
This section is not fully consistent with Jahoda's 1958 book Current Concepts of Positive Mental Health (New York: Basic Books, Inc.). In that book, the most succinct summary of her conception of "ideal mental health" (n.b.: that phrase is not used in the book) is to be found on p. 23, where the "six major categories of concepts" are: "attitudes of an individual toward his own self"; "the individual's style and degree of growth, development, or self-actualization"; "a central synthesizing psychological function.... [t]his function will here be called integration"; "autonomy" which "singles out the individual's degree of independence from social influences"; "adequacy of an individual's perception of reality"; and "environmental mastery" (which on p. 53 is said to include "(1) the ability to love; (2) adequacy in love, work, and play; (3) adequacy in interpersonal relations; (4) efficiency in meeting situational requirements; (5) capacity for adaptation and adjustment; (6) efficiency in problem-solving"). Because the current text is misleading, I suggest that we modify this section to reflect the content of Jahoda's published work. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Stpeter (talk • contribs) 00:04, 21 August 2022 (UTC)
