What are the differances between educators and psychologists when it comes to vocational guidance? I mean what kind of role did they both play or the influence they made?

The following books may be helpful:

1987 Glover, John A. & Ronning, Royce R.(Eds.) Historical Foundations of Educational Psychology New York: Plenum Press 1996 Fagan, Thomas & Warden, Paul G.

Another place to look for an answer is in the series of books Unification Through Divisions: Histories of the Divisions of the American Psychological Association, edited by Donald A. Dewsbury and Published by the American Psychological Association. TThe history of divisiion 16, School Psychology, is in volume I. The history of division 17, Counseling Psychology, is in volume III. There is as yet no history of division 15, Educational Psychology.
