An Evaluation Of The Various Short Forms Of The Wechsler-Bellevue Test, Bertram Cohen, Ira M. Steisel
An Evaluation Of The Various Short Forms Of The Wechsler-Bellevue Test, Bertram Cohen, Ira M. Steisel
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
The need for a rapid and efficient method of estimating adult intellectual level on an individual examination basis has been felt with increasing urgency in the past few years. An instrument of this type should include, to as great an extent as possible, the statistical advantages of a well standardized individual test along with the advantage of administrative economy. A brief scale meeting these criteria should be useful as a clinical screening device. It should be of some service as a method of sifting out of a large group those individuals who should be given further examination. Such an instrument …
A Preliminary Analysis Of Attitudes Related To Driving, Donald W. Conover
A Preliminary Analysis Of Attitudes Related To Driving, Donald W. Conover
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
Educators, psychologists and sociologists are stressing the problem of attitudes in many recent writings and those interested in safety feel it is one of the most fruitful approaches to successful accident prevention. Before the effects of training can be ascertained measuring instruments must be perfected and standardized. A review of recent literature on safety reveals that writers frequently refer to the attitudes of drivers as factors considered important in relation to general driving ability (Stack and Siebrecht, 1945) (Hubert, 1940). For present purpose, an attitude has been defined as the "acceptance value of a belief". It follows from this definition …

Selection Of The Optimal Scoring Plan For The Fritz Test Of Cynicism, Charles O. Neidt
Selection Of The Optimal Scoring Plan For The Fritz Test Of Cynicism, Charles O. Neidt
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
In an investigation involving a measuring instrument made up of situations to which a subject reacts on a response scale, consideration must be given the arithmetic weight-values to be assigned to the various responses along the scale before scoring the test. The present investigation was undertaken to select a scoring plan, i.e., weight-values, for the response scale provided in the Fritz Test of Cynicism.

The Relation Between Ocular Dominance, Handidness, And Visual Acuity, Edward C. Palmer, Marjorie Seiser, A. R. Lauer
The Relation Between Ocular Dominance, Handidness, And Visual Acuity, Edward C. Palmer, Marjorie Seiser, A. R. Lauer
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
It is of certain theoretical and academic interest to learn whether persons who are right handed also tend to be right-eyed or visa versa. The question often comes up as to whether one who has marked ocular dominance tends to use the better eye or whether the eye being used most gets weaker or stronger. Data were available that could be analyzed to throw light on these problems which might be formulated into the following questions: 1. Is there a tendency for right-handed persons to be right-eyed and left-handed persons to be left-eyed? 2. Is the dominant eye the strongest …
The Selection Of Science Students At The College Level, John L. Holmes
The Selection Of Science Students At The College Level, John L. Holmes
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
In predicting scholarship in college practically every known fact about a student has been studied in an effort to find the variables most predictive of success. Age, height, weight, religion, father's occupation, education of parents, and size of family have been extensively used to predict college success. Prediction through the use of tests has been studied in practically every college from the smallest junior college to the largest universities. The interest, and it has been tremendous, shown in the prediction of college success is closely related to the progress made in devising more accurate measurement devices. Beginning in 1917 with …
Co-Variation Of Cynicism And Idealism, Martin F. Fritz
Co-Variation Of Cynicism And Idealism, Martin F. Fritz
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
Last year (1946) two papers were presented before the psychology section of the Iowa Academy of Science by Mr. Charles O. Neidt and the author of this paper, dealing with the construction and statistical analysis of a test designed to measure the variables of cynicism and idealism. The test, consisting of 200 items, is called a "Practical Policy Test" in order to avoid indicating its exact nature to the subject. The details of administering the test will not be repeated here (1), except to say that a four-point scale was used in order to secure graded responses as follows: A-very …
Improvement Of Test Criteria, A. R. Lauer
Improvement Of Test Criteria, A. R. Lauer
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
Perhaps no other science is as conscious of validity coefficients as psychology. This may be partly due to the impetus given statistical methods by such early investigators as Galton, Pearson, Yule, and Spearman. Later work by Thurstone, Fisher, Holzinger, Garret and others has kept the profession highly conscious of the need for refined and, in some instances, involved statistical evaluation. In certain types of experimental work, such as mental testing, it is highly essential to keep the validity of tests high. It is, of course, taken for granted that in any science accurate measuring instruments are available for use without …
Positive Transfer As A Factor In Memory, Richard Wellington Husband
Positive Transfer As A Factor In Memory, Richard Wellington Husband
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
It is but reiteration to observe that once a skill has been acquired or a problem solved, the second attempt at that or a similar task will be accomplished with greater efficiency, lesser expenditure of time or effort, or both. Such improvement may be due either to memory or transfer of training-memory when repetition of the same performance is requested at a later date, and transfer when a different but more or less similar task is to be done. Memory is commonly measured by one of two principal ways: by amount retained, and by relearning. The latter method gives an …
Certain Factors Affecting The Legibility Of Stop Signs, A. R. Lauer, L. F. Embree
Certain Factors Affecting The Legibility Of Stop Signs, A. R. Lauer, L. F. Embree
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
In the evolution of highway signs, the square or rectangular shape was first used to indicate any conditions which might affect driving on the highway. When it became necessary to differentiate between conditions along the right-of-way from conditions on the right-of-way, it was decided to rotate the square sign 45 degrees and let the diamond-shaped sign stand for curves, dips, hills, and other conditions on the roadway proper. Later, when a sign was needed to indicate STOP someone suggested cutting off the corners and making an octagonal sign of the diamond. The round sign was adopted as the designation for …
A Comparison Of The Minnesota Personality Scale And The Bell Adjustment Inventory For Student Counseling, George D. Lovell, Gloria Laurie, Doris Marvin
A Comparison Of The Minnesota Personality Scale And The Bell Adjustment Inventory For Student Counseling, George D. Lovell, Gloria Laurie, Doris Marvin
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
The purpose of this study is to report the findings concerning the comparative diagnostic value of two personality tests, the Bell Adjustment Inventory (Student form) and the Minnesota Personality Scale, for use in student counseling. The Bell Adjustment Inventory has been used for the past six years as a part of the battery of tests given during New Student Days at Grinnell College, with apparently satisfactory results. However, with the development of the new Minnesota Personality Scale, it was felt by the college personnel department that perhaps this test would prove of even greater diagnostic value in the counseling program.
Some Personality Traits Of Collegiate Underachievers, Wilma C. Winberg
Some Personality Traits Of Collegiate Underachievers, Wilma C. Winberg
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
The purpose of this study was to identify certain measurable personality traits characteristic of scholastic underachievement from the results of selected personality tests. Underachievement is defined in terms of a negative discrepancy between predicted and achieved grade point averages. Measurable personality traits are defined in terms of item respom1es on three personality inventories of 543 items. Current work on personality and personality testing tends to reveal that personality is environmentally conditioned. To date, most personality tests have been validated by the method of internal consistency and not against an external criterion. A preliminary survey suggested that academic underachievers are somewhat …
Progress Report On Revision Of Curriculum In Biology For Iowa High Schools, Richard F. Trump
Progress Report On Revision Of Curriculum In Biology For Iowa High Schools, Richard F. Trump
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
When our committee submitted a list of objectives for high school biology to one of our colleagues for criticism, he commented in the margin, "Making objectives has been a favorite indoor sport of educators for a number of years; but attaining the objectives is a different species of animal!" From the outset of our investigation we have been aware that we could contribute very little to science teaching by producing a better set of aims or objectives. We know that for a long time teachers with good objectives have taught poor biology, while other teachers with the same objectives-or with …
Basic Concepts In The Interpretation Of Visual Phenomena, Theodore Louis Jahn
Basic Concepts In The Interpretation Of Visual Phenomena, Theodore Louis Jahn
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
During the past decade several attempts have been made to formulate equations which would explain certain visual phenomena, namely flicker fusion frequency, brightness discrimination, visual acuity, and instantaneous thresholds as functions of intensity, and light and dark adaptation as functions of time. These various equations are based on several fundamental concepts regarding the mechanism by which the visual sensation is determined. Each concept has been explained by the original author at the time the theory was proposed, but no comparison of these basic ideas has yet appeared in the literature. The purpose of the present paper is to make such …

Relation Of Cynicism To Certain Other Variables, Charles O. Neidt
Relation Of Cynicism To Certain Other Variables, Charles O. Neidt
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
It is not uncommon to hear the remark "He's a cynic", or "He has a cynical attitude" expressed in everyday conversation. During the course of an investigation designed to develop a test of cynicism, certain data were available for study in connection with cynical responses. These data were analyzed to answer several questions concerning cynicism and certain other variables. For example, are college men more cynical than women? What is the relation to religion, politics, and marriage? Does cynicism increase with age-or education?
