Abstract
John Dillingham Dodson was the enigmatic, less well-known contributor to the research study that resulted in the creation of the famous Yerkes-Dodson Law. This law is still described in introductory psychology textbooks and entering "Yerkes-Dodson" as a search term in an Internet search engine produces many thousands of hits. This article reveals what became of the junior partner in that classic research.
