This paper reports on Singaporean pre-service teachers' views of psychology and knowledge and the skills of psychology which are important for them. A total of 353 teachers taking the core module of educational psychology participated in the study. They rated the degree of appropriateness of items that described the discipline of psychology and responded to statements that described the sub-disciplines of psychology. They also rated the degree of importance of the items related to knowledge and skills for teachers. In general, the pre-service teachers of our study did not rate highly items related to knowledge. They rated moderately low general descriptions of the discipline of psychology. Three quarters to two thirds of them answered correctly descriptions related to counseling and general psychology, but possessed limited knowledge of the founders of psychology. The implications of the findings of our study for teaching of psychology and integrating psychology to teacher education are discussed.
