This publication highlights the career of Dr. Ellen Scrivner, a past president of American Psychological Association's (APA's) Division 18 and a pioneer in the specialty of police and public safety psychology. While psychologists' work with police and public safety may be typical now, Dr. Scrivner's journey and work were atypical when she embarked on her academic studies and began her career. Although initially intrigued by the science of changing behavior, she became more interested in changing the behaviors of organizations throughout her time as a psychology major in undergraduate studies. Dr. Scrivner followed this passion through her graduate studies and into her career. As a professional working with police in public safety, having a background in psychology has allowed Dr. Scrivner to better assist organizations in transitioning or creating different, coherent, and more effective patterns or practices.

本文重点介绍了 Ellen Scrivner 博士的职业生涯。她是美国心理协会（APA）第 18 分部的前任主席，也是警察与公共安全心理学这一专业领域的先驱。虽然心理学家与警察和公共安全部门合作的工作如今已较为常见，但当 Scrivner 博士开始从事学术研究和职业生涯时，她的经历和工作却并非如此。虽然她最初对改变行为的科学很感兴趣，但在本科学习期间，她对改变组织行为产生了更大的兴趣。Scrivner 博士在研究生学习和职业生涯中一直追随这一热情。作为一名与警察一起从事公共安全工作的专业人士，拥有心理学背景使 Scrivner 博士能够更好地帮助组织转变或创建不同、连贯且更有效的模式或实践。（PsycInfo 数据库记录（c）2023 APA，保留所有权利）。
