Memorializes Ravenna M. Helson (1925–2020). Helson was a pioneering feminist researcher whose studies advanced the understanding of women’s development and creativity, and revealed the power of personality across the life span. She spent her 55-year career at the University of California Berkeley’s Institute for Personality Assessment and Research. In 1955, she was the only woman on staff, and remained the only woman for decades. In 1958 with a 2- and a 1-year-old in tow, she launched the Mills Longitudinal Study of creative potential in 142 female seniors at Mills College. In those times, before second wave feminism or a women’s movement, and without any psychology of women, she worked hard to attain visibility for her findings. In 1980 the Mills study transformed to a 50-year research program about women’s adult development. Helson died October 2, 2020.

拉文纳 M. 赫尔森 (1925–2020)。

纪念 Ravenna M. Helson (1925–2020)。赫尔森是一位开创性的女权主义研究者，他的研究增进了对女性发展和创造力的理解，并揭示了个性在整个生命周期中的力量。她在加州大学伯克利分校的人格评估与研究所度过了 55 年的职业生涯。1955 年，她是员工中唯一的女性，并且几十年来一直是唯一的女性。1958 年，她带着一个 2 岁和一个 1 岁的孩子在米尔斯学院发起了一项针对 142 名女性大四学生的创造潜力的米尔斯纵向研究。在那个时代，在第二波女权主义或女性运动之前，没有任何女性心理，她努力工作以使她的发现获得知名度。1980 年，米尔斯研究转变为一项关于女性成人发展的 50 年研究计划。
