Note: This is a work in progress and as such it is incomplete and may contain some errors. Names in bold face type appeared on the 100-Most-Eminent list in the article The 100 Most Eminent Psychologists of the 20th Century, which is in press in Review of General Psychology. Rank on the most-eminent list is indicated in parentheses after names in bold-face type. Schools and the year in which the Ph.D. or other degree was awarded are also given. A mentor identified here was the "individual who was academically or officially responsible for assisting and approving the completion of a mentee's doctoral degree requirements and especially the dissertation" (Williams, 1993).
