This paper discusses the role of social psychologists in contemporary society. Often the general public asked them to give opinions about various social problems, as if they were specialists in human relations. A case example was the Social Science Statement presented to the Supreme Court of USA in the decision of Brown vs. Board of Education of Topeka. In this Statement a heavy emphasis on psychological research was used to support the claim that segregation in public schools had a bad influence on the personality development of Negro children. Twenty-five years on, the Statement has been criticized by some psychologists on the grounds that it was an unfounded statement without valid evidence. To resolve this controversy among social psychologists, the series of doll test by Clark  Clark (upon whose results the Statement was said to be based) were subjected to reexaminations.
