Excerpt from The Examination of School Children: A Manual of Directions and Norms
The purpose of this manual is to provide, in convenient form for teachers, directions for the examination of school children and tables of norms for the various ages. No originality is claimed for the tests; they have been in use for some time. After extensive trial of nearly all the forms of mental tests that have been proposed, I have selected those that, all things considered, seem best for group tests. I give the complete tables of norms for the tests essentially as described in Whipple's Manual of Mental and Physical Tests, because these tests are already known and the material available. Additional tests with the norms will be published annually. In the present volume, supplementary material is provided for nearly all the tests.
It is hoped that the publication of this material in this form will aid the teacher somewhat in the scientific study of school children.
To the many superintendents, principals, and teachers who have assisted in giving the tests, I am under great obligation; also to Mr. C. W. Bock, who prepared the graphs, and to Miss Dora Ross, who for two years has assisted me in grading and working up the material.
