[news.groups] sci.psychology

tim@hoptoad.uucp (Tim Maroney) (08/13/87)

I would like to see a new newsgroup created for serious discussions of the
scientific study of behavior and the psyche.  Over the years, I have had a
number of interesting mail discussions with others who have a formal
education in psychology, and it seems to me the time for such a newsgroup is
now.  Please do not respond to the network: respond to me and I will
summarize discussion in a week or two.

Thirty days ago I posted a net-wide message asking for votes
for/against a new group called 'sci.psych' (since RENAMED
sci.psychology) for discussion on psychological topics.  The votes have
been tabulated and attached to this mail message.  The tally is:

	YES - 98
	NO --  1

I believe that this should be sufficient to establish sci.psychology.
In addition, Erik Fair (fair@ucbarpa.berkeley.edu) has agreed to open
up the INET sci.psychology distribution to USENET thereby tying
together both populations.

I've sent a message to backbone@rutgers.edu asking for sci.psychology to be
created.

Thank you to everyone who participated in the voting process for the
creation of this new news group.

Don't you folks know about Psychnet, the psychology bulletin board?

>From: EPSYNET@UHUPVM1 (Robert C. Morecock)
Subject: Announcement of new bboard named psychnet
Date: 30 Jun 86 17:34:27 GMT

PSYCHNET (tm)     Psychology Newsletter and Mailing List      EPSYNET@UHUPVM1
   The Psychnet mailing list and Newsletter sends out information and
news to those who sign up.  Within Bitnet, Psychnet is also a 24-hour
server machine which mails out files to users who first send the
PSYCHNET HELP command to userid UH-INFO at node UHUPVM1.  OUTSIDE
BITNET Psychnet is a mailing list and Newsletter only.  Once per week
ALL members receive the latest Psychnet Newsletter and Index of files
available on the server machine.  Outside Bitnet, if a file looks
interesting send an E-mail request to userid EPSYNET (NOT uh-info) at
node UHUPVM1 and the file will be shipped out to you.  Persons within
may also sign up for the mail list and will get the Newsletter and
Index along with other news.  Users within Bitnet should get their
files directly from the server machine.  An Exec file is available for
CMS users and COM files are available for VAX users within Bitnet.
   If you have a file or idea you wish distributed to members of the
list you may send it to userid EPSYNET at node UHUPVM1 and it will be
sent out for you, usually with the week's Psychnet Newsletter.  An
initial formal purpose of Psychnet is distribution of academic papers
in advance of this year's (1986) APA convention.  Other purposes will
develop according to the needs and interests of the profession and
Psychnet users.
   All requests to be added to or deleted from the mailing list, or to
have files distributed should be sent to:
   Coordinator:  Robert C. Morecock, Psychnet Editor, EPSYNET@UHUPVM1

Uhm, I thought that there had to be 100 more YES votes than NO votes to
create a new newsgroup.  Close, but no cigar.

Here's another "aye" or "yea" for sci.psychology.  Hope it's useful.
