# Walter Richard Miles

> Walter Richard Miles was an American psychologist and a president of the American Psychological Association (APA). He best known for his development of the two-story rat maze, his research on low dose alcohol, the preservation and study of early Muybridge works, the development of red night vision goggles for aviation pilots, and the reduction of performance in aging individuals. The theme of his academic career was his fascination with apparatuses to measure behavior. C. James Goodwin (2003) noted that Miles "never became a leading figure in any particular area of research in psychology... but drifted from one area to another, with the direction of the drift determined often by the presence of a particular type of apparatus or an apparatus-related problem that intrigued him".

*American psychologist (1885–1978)*
