Excerpt from Journal of Psycho-Asthenics, Vol. 1: Monograph Supplements I. Standardization of Procedure. The first need of the sys tem of tests as it stands in the original is more specific and de tailed directions as to how to proceed in each individual test and how to interpret the child's responses. In the absence of this complete standardization different examiners proceed differently and their results must necessarily often disagree. The fact that the several revisions of the scale disagree in a number of in stances is very probably largely due to this one factor. My ac count of the 1908 tests added some directions not given in the original. In the present revision this is carried out more fully. Since a test may often be made difficult or easy according to how you proceed, the directions on procedure and interpretation have in some instances been adapted so as to make the test of the proper degree of difficulty for the place in which it was left or to which it was shifted. In considering the present revision and comparing it with others, this should be taken into account, in order to judge it correctly. It also follows that it is of the first importance to follow the directions minutely, except where spec ial conditions, which can never be all foreseen and provided for, make a change absolutely necessary. How to proceed in such instances must be left to the judgment of the examiner, and the accuracy of the results will then depend on his qualifications as an'examiner as well as on the tests. Of this more will be said later. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
